I encountered something similar to this a while ago when watching a multiplayer mod of Ocarina of Time[0]. They use a string of inventory item symbols to denote the identity of the server to connect to. “Hook shot, hook shot, master sword, deku nut” is a whole lot easier to remember than a long string of ascii.
I guess it’d be something like a Base62 encoding.
