1. A method of displaying written text during the preparation of a text message to be transmitted by a mobile radio terminal, comprising:
- displaying written text entered by a user;
displaying a graphical text message break between characters of the written text that are associated with a first text message payload that has a predetermined maximum length measured in number of characters and characters of the written text that are associated with a second text message payload that has a predetermined maximum length measured in number of characters, the first and second text messages used to transmit the written text as a multipart text message; and
controlling a space between the graphical text message break and characters associated with the payload of the first text message such that there is a proportional correspondence between a number of characters remaining in the payload of the first text message and an end of the first text message as represented by the graphical text message break.
