Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a text version management system, and more particularly to a text version management system in a text editor.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional text version management system has been performed by a version management program (SCCS, RCS, etc. of UNIX) or a version management function of the file system itself. From a text editor's point of view, these could only retrieve the entire text image of an arbitrary version, and could not pass the information of the version management program to the text editor.

[0003]

The conventional text version management system described above cannot transfer the information of the version management program to the text editor, and the text editor is linked with the version management (especially input / output). There is a problem that it cannot be controlled and operated.

If this is shown as a concrete example, it is impossible to distinguish the existing text from the text input in the current edit on the display.

No protection is applied to existing text. In other words, it can be modified inadvertently if the words are changed.

Despite the version number management, it is not possible to refer to or quote text that was deleted in the past while being edited by a text editor. And so on.

An object of the present invention is to provide a text version management system capable of distinguishing existing text from text entered in the current edit, preventing inadvertent correction, and referring to and quoting text that has been deleted in the past. To do.

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.

In the text version management system of the present invention, an input means 11 for inputting a character for creating a text and a command to a text editor and a display means 1 for displaying the text.
The input control unit 9 including the input control version number interlocking unit 10 for performing input control by referring to the version number designated by the data input by the input unit 11, the deleted version number, and the generated version number And a version number area 4 that stores the version number of the text, and a version number 6 that is deleted when a part of the text is changed.
When displaying the text buffer area 5 for storing and holding the generated version number 7 and the text image 8 and the content of the partially modified text on the display means 1, the version number and the deleted version of the corresponding text It is realized by having an output control section 2 including an output control version number interlocking means 3 for performing output control by referring to the number and the generation version number.

Next, the functions of each means and each area of each control unit will be individually described.

The display means 1 is for displaying text and has display attributes (color, emphasis, normal, reverse, blinking, etc.).
The display can be changed by setting.

The output control section 2 controls the output to the display means 1.

The output control version number interlocking means 3 is a component of the output control section 2 and controls the output by referring to the version number stored in the version number area 4, the deleted version number 6 and the generated version number 7.

The version number area 4 is set at the end of one editing operation group.
Add "1" to the stored version number. In this case, the delimiter of one editing operation group is writing to the file.

The text buffer area 5 is a list of records including three fields of a deleted version number 6, a generated version number 7 and a text image 8. When generating each record,
The maximum version number is set in the deleted version number 6, and the version number value stored in the version number area 4 is set in the generated version number 7. (In the present embodiment, the value of the version number stored in the version number area 4 is always smaller than the maximum version number. Also, the maximum version number is represented as MaxRev in the figure.) The editing operation is deletion. At this time, if the setting value of the generated version number 7 is the same as the version number value stored in the version number area 4, it is discarded, and the generated version number 7 is more than the version number value stored in the version number area 4. If it is small, the value of the version number stored in the version number area 4 is set in the deleted version number 6.

The input control section 9 controls the input from the input means 11.

The input control version number interlocking means 10 is one component of the input control section 9, and has the values of the version number, the deleted version number and the generated version number designated by the input data and already stored in each area. Input control is performed by referring to and.

The input means 11 is a character for creating text,
Or, it inputs a command to a text editor.

Next, the operation will be described.

FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram when the deleted line non-display processing is performed in the embodiment of the present invention. In this example,
The control condition in the output control version number interlocking means 3 is hidden when the deleted version number 6 is less than or equal to the value of the version number stored in the version number area 4, and therefore is deleted in the display means 1. No line is displayed. Further, the output control version number interlocking means 3 is normally displayed if the generated version number 7 is smaller than the value of the version number stored in the version number area 4, and is highlighted otherwise (displayed in bold in this embodiment). ), The first and fourth lines of the display means 1 are displayed normally, and the second and third lines are displayed highlighted. Further, the control condition of the input control version number interlocking means 10 is that if the generated version number 7 is smaller than the version number value stored in the version number area 4, input is not possible, and if it is equal or large, input is possible. The 1st and 4th lines of the display means 1 cannot be input.

FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram when the deleted line display processing is performed in one embodiment of the present invention.

In this embodiment, the input control version number interlocking means 10

Further, the control condition of the output control version number interlocking means 3 is displayed in reverse if the deleted version number 6 is smaller than or equal to the value of the version number stored in the version number area 4, and the deleted version number 6 is the version number. Area 4
If the generated version number 7 is smaller than the version number value stored in the version number area 4 and the generated version number 7 is smaller than the version number value stored in the version number area 4, normal display is performed, and other states are highlighted. The first line of the display means 1 is reversely displayed, the second and fifth lines are normally displayed, 3,
The fourth line is highlighted.

FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram in the case where the correction processing is performed on the existing row in the embodiment of the present invention.

In this embodiment, since the version number is managed, change protection is applied to existing lines. Therefore,
You cannot directly modify existing lines. Therefore, the existing text is modified by the following procedure. ◎ Generate a new line. ◎ Copy the text image of the existing line you want to change to the generated line. ◎ Delete the existing line from the copy source.

FIG. 4 shows that the above procedure has just been performed, and the user has corrected the second line which is an existing line by correcting the third line of the display means 1.

In the present embodiment, the input control version number interlocking means 10
Since the control condition in (1) is the same as the deleted line non-display processing shown in FIG. 2, the first, second, and sixth lines of the display means 1 cannot be input. Further, since the control condition in the output control version number interlocking means 3 is the same as that in the deleted line display processing shown in FIG. 3,
The first and second lines of the display means 1 are reversely displayed, the sixth line is a normal display, and the third, fourth and fifth lines are highlighted.
