The code

int len = 0;
String string ;
@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
text.setOnKeyListener(new OnKeyListener()
{ public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DEL)
{
}
else{
string = text.getText().toString();
len = string.length()+1;
if(len%5==0){text.append("-");}
}
return false; } });
}
});
