Detailed Description

Latin1/GSM conversion class.

The GSM specifications for SMS use a compact 7-bit encoding to represent Latin-1 characters, compared to the more usual 8-bit ISO-8859-1 encoding used on many computer systems.

The GSMCodec class enables conversion back and forth between the GSM encoding and the normal 8-bit encoding used by Qtopia.

Application programs will rarely need to use this class, because the SMSMessage class automatically converts between 7-bit and 8-bit encodings as necessary.
