Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Subject of the Invention] The invention is a functional character control method suitable for a data terminal such as a Kanji printer control device or a decisive hiteo control device. Regarding.

[Background of the invention]

There is no function to change the code of the functional character from the outside in the Zakubei Keiji Glinta control device or the Kanji Piteo control device (for example, when selling the Kanji Plink system, the code of the functional character in the system system of the other party is changed). If the change is approved, the host will send the kanji text Y
The only options were to either try again or change the logic or control software of the Kanji printer controller. However, this method of dealing with the problem by changing the logic of the control device or the control software has the drawbacks of increasing costs and complicating management.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and the present invention has been made in view of the above points.
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a character control system that allows arbitrary conversion according to commands from a host.

[Summary of the invention]

Normally, in a kanji printer control device, etc., functional characters are discriminated from the first part of the kanji text by a special discriminator according to the specified code, and are expanded into the corresponding functional character register. The present invention receives and stores information on the correspondence between new and old functional character codes based on a command from the host, modifies the function of the functional character discriminator using this information, and is capable of discriminating 1tlrt different functional character codes. This is what I did.

[Embodiments of the invention]

Hereinafter, embodiments of the invention will be explained in detail based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the format of information on the correspondence between old and new functional character codes sent by a glance command from the host, in which conventional codes are placed in 0FCi and newly defined codes are placed in NFCi.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a functional character control system according to the present invention. In the same figure, 1 is a register for storing the new/old correspondence information of the received functional character code, 2 is a 7 star for storing kanji text, 8 is a decoder for modifying the code discrimination of the functional character code discriminator, and 4 is a register for storing the old/new correspondence information of the received functional character code. a discriminator for functional characters whose functions are modified by the decoder 8; 5 is a functional gear 2 register; 6
is a kanji text editor.

First, information on correspondence between old and new functional characters as shown in FIG. 1 is received from the host using a dedicated command, and is stored in register 1. On the other hand, register 2 contains kanji text with the newly defined functional character code 91W.
and stored. The decoder 8 reads the old and new functional character code correspondence information stored in the register 1, and modifies the corresponding functional character code discriminator 4.

The Kanji text is then read from the register 2 and the corresponding functional character register is set by the functional character discriminator 4 according to the new code. The actual editing of the Kanji text is carried out by the Kanji text editing calculator 6, which receives the functional characters from the functional character register 50 and the Kanji text from the register 2 as input.

In the above embodiment, the function character code specified for a certain kind of Kanji printer control device or Kanji video control device can be sent by the host using a special command without changing the logic of the device. By simply receiving information into register 1, decoding this information by decoder 8, and modifying the corresponding discriminator 40 function, new function characters can be discriminated. It is easy to connect a printer control device or Kanji video control device, etc.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the function character control method according to the invention can change the function character code specified in the device using information from the host that changes the function character code. It has the advantage of being able to connect a Kanji printer or a Kanji video system to a system with a different functional character code without changing the text.

Claims (1)

[Claims] (1) Information for changing the function character code is stored in the data terminal that receives text from the host, distinguishes its function character, and collects chasts, and modifies the function of each program using this information. and enable the discrimination of detailed functional characters! Features: Galacta-based enemy system.
