Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a text processing device (word processor), and more particularly to a text processing device (word processor) which can efficiently call a text already registered.

In particular, a registered name (keyword) of a registered sentence and a part of the registered sentence corresponding to the registered name are displayed on the display screen so that the registered sentence of the desired registered name can be called accurately. It is a thing.

[0003]

2. Description of the Related Art Recently, word processors have been remarkably popularized and are used in various offices.

The various texts created by this word processor are registered and saved in a memory such as a floppy disk by giving each text a registration name.

In this text registration, a registered name corresponding to the text to be registered by the operator is given. However, the number of characters of this registered name is generally limited, and the text content can be accurately set within the limitation. I had to give it a registered name to express.

However, as the number of registered sentences increases, the number of similar registered names also increases, and it is difficult to find the sentence of the desired registered name when the registered sentence is called later.

Therefore, when calling the registered text, a list of registered names is called on the display screen, the registered name is selected by looking at the registered name list displayed on this display screen, and the selected name is responded to. In some cases, the corresponding sentence is displayed on the display screen.

[0008]

Since the registered name is usually expressed by kana characters or about 6 kanji characters, it is not sufficient to express the registered contents depending on the text, and the expression of the registered name should be devised. There was a need.

In addition, when a variety of similar sentences are registered, there are many similar registered names. In such a case, when the registered name list is displayed, it is not possible to determine which is the target sentence only from the registered name.Therefore, call the entire registered sentence once on the display screen and check the content of the sentence. , Here, if it was not the desired text, I was forced to perform a troublesome operation such as displaying the list again and selecting the next registered name.

Therefore, the operator is troubled by the operation of calling the registered text, and there is a problem in that the efficiency of text processing is improved.

[0011]

The present invention has been proposed in order to solve the above problems, and in particular, the display screen is efficiently used, that is, the text being created is displayed on the screen of the display device. A text display area to be displayed, a list display area to display a plurality of registered names of registered texts at the same time, and a registered text display area to display a part of the registered texts are being created on one display screen. Together with a plurality of registered names and a part of the registered sentences corresponding to the registered name are displayed at the same time to clarify the relation between the sentence being created, the list of sentences to be called and the registered sentence, and using the registered sentence. This is to make all text creation processing efficient.

In particular, the first aspect of the present invention is configured such that a registered text display area for displaying a part of the registered text can be selectively displayed, and the selection of the registered text is registered in the list display area. It is possible to select whether to perform only by instructing the first name or after displaying the registered text corresponding to the registered name instructed in the list display area in the registered text display area. Invention of 2 is 1
It is configured to simultaneously display a plurality of registered names and a part of registered text corresponding to the selection of the registered name together with the text being created on one display screen, and for each registered name instruction displayed in the list display area. In addition, a part of the corresponding registered text is sequentially displayed in the registered text display area.

[0013]

According to the text processing apparatus of the present invention, a plurality of registered names and a part of the registered text corresponding to the registered names are displayed simultaneously on the one display screen together with the text being created. Yes, at this time, the display of the registered text corresponding to the selection of the registered name can be selected, or a part of the registered text corresponding to each selection of the registered name is always displayed. Can easily determine which registered name is the registered text from this screen, which simplifies the calling operation of the registered text and is extremely effective especially when inserting the registered text into the text currently being created. It is possible to improve the efficiency of text processing.

[0014]

1 and 2 show a display method of a text processing apparatus of the present invention, that is, a display example at the time of a registered text calling operation. In these FIG. 1 and FIG. The outline will be described first.

The text input from the keyboard device when creating the text is displayed on the display screen DP of the CRT display device. In this state, the text registered in the floppy disk (FD) previously created is the input text. When inserting the text, the cursor K is used to indicate the insertion position in the text being created, and the registered text is called to insert the text at the specified position.

At this time, when the registered text is called from the FD,
Each sentence is registered in the FD with a desired keyword (registered name).
One sentence is selected.

Therefore, at the time of the calling operation, as shown in FIG. 1, the display screen DP is divided into three, and a part of the text being created (upper three lines from the position to be inserted) is being created in the upper area A.
Is displayed, a keyword list of registered sentences is displayed in the interruption area B, and a part of the selected registered sentences (upper 5 lines of the registered sentences) is always or selectively displayed in the lower area C. I am doing it.

From this display, it is possible to confirm whether the registered text that the operator is trying to call is the target text. If the registered text is the target text, the execution key is operated and the text being created is displayed as shown in FIG. The selected registered sentence C ′ is continuously connected from the position of the cursor K of A ′ and displayed (created).

According to the present invention, by performing the display control as described above, the operation of calling the registered text can be facilitated, and the desired registered text can be immediately called on the screen. Next, the configuration of the text processing apparatus of the present invention which performs the above operation is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, and this configuration will be described below.

In FIG. 3, reference numeral 10 denotes a control unit for performing text editing control according to an editing program stored in the program memory 12 in advance, and each unit described below is connected thereto.

A keyboard unit 11 supplies a key signal to the control unit 10 when each key is operated. The keyboard unit 11 is composed of character keys for inputting sentences (in this example, it is a kana character key, an alphabet key, a numeric key, etc. because it has kana-kanji conversion) and keys for various editing controls. Has been done. Keys for typical editing control are shown: a cursor key for moving a cursor mark displayed as an input position on the display screen, a list key for displaying a registered text list, and a single registered text listed. A split key for displaying and an execution key for executing an operation are provided.

A kana-kanji conversion unit 13 converts a kana sentence input from the keyboard unit into a kanji kanji mixed sentence and outputs it. A text buffer 14 stores text data created by the Kana-Kanji conversion unit.

Reference numeral 16 denotes a floppy disk (FD), which stores a registered text area 42, keywords (registered names) of all registered texts stored in the area 42, and address data of the text data, as shown in FIG. The index area 41 is stored.

Reference numeral 15 denotes a memory which constitutes various buffers, counters, etc., and as shown in FIG. 4, a list buffer 30 for storing the data of the FD index area 41 at the time of list display, and a registered text for which a calling instruction is given. A part (five lines in this example) is transferred from the FD 16, and the registered character buffer 31 that stores a part of the registered sentence and the sentence data of the line where the cursor mark K on the display screen is located are temporarily stored. Row buffer 32 to be executed, and this row buffer 32
Buffer 33 for temporarily storing standby data
And various buffers, a pointer (P ₁ ) 37 indicating the position of the sentence data stored in the line buffer 32 by controlling the address of the sentence buffer 14, a pointer (P ₂ ) 36 indicating the cursor position of the line buffer 32, DC counter 34 that counts up or down each time the cursor key is operated, and LC that indicates the cursor position when the list is displayed.
A counter 35 and the like are included.

Referring again to FIG. 3, a printer controller 17 controls the printer 18. Again 1
A display memory 9 stores display data under the write control of the controller 10 and is read out by the display controller 20 to display the data on the CRT 21.

The mark (1) in FIG. 1 indicates the DC counter 3
4 is a cursor mark K indicating the input position of a sentence, and the → mark in FIG. 1 is a list indicating cursor mark M displayed according to the LC counter.

Next, the operation of the text processing apparatus having the above-mentioned configuration will be described with reference to FIG.
It will be described below according to the flowchart of FIG.

First, in general text processing, a kana sentence is input from the keyboard according to the document to be created, converted into a kanji magic sentence by the kana-kanji conversion unit 13 and stored in the sentence buffer 14. The input text data is also stored in the display memory 19 and displayed on the CRT 21.

A keyword (registered name) is input to the created text data, and a floppy disk (FD) 1 is input.
6 can be registered. In this case, the keyword and the address data for storing the text data are paired and stored in the index area 41 of the FD 16.

In this way, plural kinds of text data are FD
16 and the text data being created is stored in the display memory 19 and the text buffer 14, the text data already registered is read from the FD 16 and the cursor is pressed to insert the text data into the text data currently being created. Use the key to move the cursor to the position to insert.

When the list key is subsequently operated from the keyboard, the operation of the flow shown in FIG. 5 is executed.

This is because the text data being created stored in the display memory 19 is line-scrolled up, and the contents of the DC counter 34 are further corrected according to the text data line being raised, and the correspondence with the screen is taken. .. As a result, the screen is displayed as shown in the upper part of FIG. 1 (in this example, the cursor line is scrolled so that the cursor line is located on the third line). Further, the display data on and after the nth row (after the insertion position) of the display memory is erased.

Next, the FD16 index data is
The keyword (registered name) data transferred to the list buffer 30 (step 4) and transferred to the list buffer 30 is sequentially transferred to and stored in the nth row and subsequent rows of the display memory 19. At this time, the address data is not transferred to the display memory 19 (FIG. 4).

Further, the LC counter 35 is reset to L
The cursor mark M (→) is stored in the corresponding line of the display memory according to the contents of the C counter 35. In this state, it is displayed like the upper and middle rows in FIG.

Here, the operator can confirm the keyword list registered in the FD 16. Then, the operator uses the cursor key to move the cursor mark M to the target keyword position. This operation counts up (cursor up key) or counts down (cursor down key) the LC counter 35 each time the cursor key is operated.
A cursor mark M is displayed at a position corresponding to, and the mth and subsequent lines of the text memory are erased (this erasure is to erase the one displaying the registered text corresponding to the keyword described later).

Here, when the operator cannot determine whether or not the target registered sentence is based only on the keyword, the operator operates the split key.

By operating this key, the LC counter 35
Select the keyword in the list buffer 30 that corresponds to
Take out the address data corresponding to this keyword,
Supply to FD16.

Based on this data, the FD 16 accesses the registered text data area corresponding to the keyword and transfers the registered text data to the registered text buffer 31 (FIG. 4).

The transferred text data is not necessarily the whole text, and it is possible to determine whether only a part of the text is the target text. Therefore, in this example, the text data for five lines is transferred. This is also effective in improving the processing speed.

Subsequently, the data of the registered text buffer 31 is transferred to the lower block (row m and after) of the display memory 19 (FIG. 4) and displayed as shown in FIG.

Further, the operation selection by the above-mentioned division key imposes a heavy burden on the user, and especially for a person who is unfamiliar with the operation, there is a case where the existence of the division operation is not confirmed. It is necessary to display the contents). Therefore, in the case of an apparatus in which the processing speed is remarkably improved, it is possible to eliminate the split key and display the registered text of the keyword displayed by the cursor mark M.

Next, when the operator selects the target keyword and operates the execution key after the above processing including the case where the determination can be made only by the keyword without performing the division operation,
Again, the registered text data of the FD 16 corresponding to the LC counter 35 is sequentially transferred to the text buffer 14 from the address (pointer P ₁ ) corresponding to the cursor position of the text buffer 14 (FIG. 4).

Subsequently, the nth and subsequent rows of the display memory 19 are erased, and the text data (registered text data) after the position P _{1 of the} text buffer 14 is deleted by one row after the cursor position (P ₂ ) of the row buffer 32. The data in the row buffer 32 is transferred to the stack buffer 33 (FIG. 4).

Subsequently, the data in the row buffer 32 is transferred in order with the DC counter 34 (position of the cursor K) of the display memory 19 as the head position, and the display memory 19 is transferred to the capacity over, that is, to the bottom line of the screen. It is transferred to the display memory 19 via the buffer 32 (FIG. 4,
).

By this operation, as shown in FIG. 2, the registered sentence that has been called is inserted and displayed in the sentence being created.

Subsequently, the data in the stack buffer 33 is transferred to the row buffer 32, and the cursor row on the display screen is stored in the row buffer 32.

By the above operation, the already registered text can be easily and easily inserted into the text currently being created.

When the text being created does not exist, FIG.
Of course, the text is not displayed in the upper row.
