tHANKS.. no wasn't too much, would come in handy for a few numbers I have to dial to enter a passcode thanks.

I use it often with conference calls through a conferencing bridge where I have to enter a 6 digit pass code that never changes. The number is dialed, pauses for the call to be answered by the conferencing bridge, then continues to dial the pass code. It takes our service so long to answer that I normally insert two Ps in the number sequence to make sure the pass code is entered after the system answers the call and is prepared to listen for the follow-on numbers used as the pass code.

A comma may have the same functionality per a previous post. Also, in years gone by, a "w" would actually wait for a key press to continue. All of these codes were used to connect to terminals and dial-up networking through old serial devices like modems. I know the "p" provides a pause on my Touch Pro2, but I've never tried the others.

I know this is probably more than you asked, but I hope it helps.
