ABSTRACT:
A method is proposed for the input of a character string into a processing unit, in which in a two-dimensional character field, a character to be input is determined from selectable characters for an input. In this context, the intuitive detection of a user input permits a simple navigation with the aid of a direction-input device in the thinned-out, two-dimensional character field between the selectable characters.
