Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a character processing device capable of performing insertion editing.

Conventionally, when inserting data such as an address book into a predetermined format such as the address of a postcard, the user can edit the data by displaying an address format that matches the address of the postcard that is the inserted data. There was a controlled device to help things. However, when inserting character data whose size is not standardized, for example, when inserting insert data into an appropriately partitioned table, the appropriate format is not registered in the character processing device, and the number of characters is 9 lines. I had to do the insertion work while thinking about the numbers.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a character processing device that compensates for the above-mentioned drawbacks by using means for arbitrarily setting and inputting the format of insertion data.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a character processing device that eliminates the work of creating the same format many times by inputting a label in an arbitrary format and registering the label in the character processing device. be.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a character processing device that makes it easy to create visually beautiful documents by inputting a format I of insertion data that matches the data to be inserted.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a character processing device of the present invention. Here, 1 is a keyboard, and this keyboard 1 is provided with a plurality of keys for inputting characters such as alphanumeric characters and symbols, and keys for activating label control and inputting various information. , 2 is an encoder for converting key information input by pressing any key of the keyboard 1 into a corresponding code signal. 3 is encoder 2
This is a code determination unit that determines whether the coded signal is a label registration control unit, an information code, or various codes for document creation/FJA collection. Reference numeral 4 denotes a word processor control fHIi that starts control when the code discrimination section 3 discriminates that the code is a character code for document creation/editing, or a center link, underline, cursor movement, or other control code; Performs deletion, creation of other documents, and deletion of lines. 5 is a label 1.5 that is controlled by the code discrimination unit 3 when there is an input related to label control. There is a II control section. The label control unit 5 determines whether to register the size of the designated label or to read out the size of the designated label. 6 is a label registration control section, and 7 is a label readout control section. Based on the judgment of the label control section 5, control of both is transferred to the label registration control section 6 when registering the specified label size, and to the label readout system 4EU section 7 when reading the specified label size. 8 is a label information buffer, and when registering a label size, that information is set. As for the label information, as shown in Fig. 2, the label number is set in 8a, the maximum number of characters in one line of the label indicated by 8a is set in 8b, and the maximum number of lines of the label indicated by 8a is set in 8c. . When the label registration control section 6 is given control by the label control section 5, it refers to the label information buffer 8 and registers the label format in the label number-5 table 9. As shown in FIG. 3, the label number table 9 can store label numbers, maximum number of characters, and maximum number of lines. For example, in 9a, the label number 0 is 17.
This indicates that the label consists of 7 lines of characters. Further, 9b indicates that the label number l is unregistered. By forming a format based on the label information stored in the label number table 9, various formats that match the data can be obtained. Note that since the table 9 is constituted by a read/write memory, it may be a memory having a capacity that can store one piece of label information.

Here, the label registration control section 6 will be explained in detail with reference to FIGS. 4-1 and 4-2. FIG. 4-1 shows the state of the label information buffer 8 that stores input label information. The label registration control unit 6 refers to this information and sets it in the label number table 9. Rahel number X after setting the information in Figure 4-1 to label number table 9
The state of the Kotaple 9 is shown in Fig. 4-2.

Next, the label readout control section 7 will be explained in detail using FIG. 5-11Δ and FIG. 5-2. Figure 5-1 shows the label information buffer 8 in which the requested label number is set.
It shows the situation. The label reading control unit 7 refers to this information and obtains label information from the label number table 9. The information is stored in buffer 10. For example, if the label information buffer 8 is set as shown in Figure 5-1 and the label number table 9 is set as shown in Figure 5-2, the label information is label number ■, maximum number of characters lO1. The maximum number of lines is 5. That information is sent to buffer 10.

Sixthly, the control process when reading a label is shown. First, in step S'61, the requested label number in the label number table 9 is searched based on the label number set in the label information buffer 8. Step S
At 62, it is checked whether the requested label number is in the label number table 9. If there is, please
The program advances to Step 2 564, where the number of characters per line is counted from the label with the label number. Also, if there is no step 563
Go to i and set the number of characters with label number 0 (1 line) as the default. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S65. In step S65, the size of one label for the obtained number of characters and one line is created as shown in FIG. 7 and stored in the file 10.

The display control section 11 displays the contents of the buffer 10 on the display section 13 with reference to the character generator 12. 7th
The figure shows the state of the display section 13 after the label reading control section 7 is executed. 13a is a left margin, 13b is a right margin, and 13c is an inden; and the area surrounded by the intent is the size of the label. For example, FIG. 7 shows five rows of X and IO characters.

As explained above, according to the present invention, by providing a means for inputting an arbitrary format of the insertion data, the effect of setting the format of the insertion data that is the sum of 5jΔj to the data to be inserted is increased by 4"J. Since the Forman I. that has been input once can be registered in the label number table 9, the work of creating the same format many times is eliminated, and at the same time, an appropriate format can be easily selected from the Formants that have been registered once. can get.
