Abstract: A method of entering melodic information into a terminal (SS1) having an audio capability, such as a portable telephone having a ringer (34), in which the information is entered as an unstructured character string of ASCII characters. Each byte of 4 characters comprises 2 characters representing a note and 2 characters representing a duration of that note. The information may be entered using a keypad (28) on the terminal or over the air from a remote terminal (PS). Short form methods are disclosed for handling repeat sequences of notes and their durations. Optionally a volume indicator may be included in the unstructured character string for use in setting the relative volume of the reproduced melodic information.
