Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a text publishing device such as a desktop publishing system or a word processor.

2. Description of the Related Art A sentence creation device such as a desktop publishing system or a word processor is used to create, modify,
Storage is easy, and its penetration rate is on the rise.

Generally, when creating a large amount of text, check the text.
There is always a process of correction. In the process of writing a text, if it is known in advance that the textual expression remains questionable and needs to be checked later, the text is conventionally recorded or special characters or symbols are added to the text. The text was created by inserting text, etc., and the process of correction was started, and the work was moved to the check location using the information as a clue.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, if there are many locations that need to be checked, the work of keeping records requires sufficient consideration in terms of uniquely expressing those locations. Great effort must be put into it.
In addition, when entering special characters or symbols in the relevant places in advance and searching for check points using these as clues, it is necessary to consider selecting characters and signals that are not used in sentences. In addition, in the description of a sentence using a display device such as a CRT, the symbol is displayed on the display, and the appearance is not good.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to reduce the effort described above, the present invention provides an input unit for inputting a character string, a display unit for displaying a character string input from the input unit, and a search code not displayed on the display unit. Search code input means for inputting into a character string, text storage means for storing a character string including the search code, instruction means for specifying the search code, and the search code specified by the instruction means are stored in the text storage means. Control means for retrieving from the sentence and moving the character string input position to the position indicated by the corresponding search code.

Operation With the above configuration, it is not necessary to record the position information of the location that needs to be checked, and the search code is set and searched without displaying the search code entered in the character string. Move the character string input position to the position indicated by the code.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a text creation device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Reference numeral 11 denotes a control unit that controls the text creation device in the present embodiment, and 12 denotes a text for inputting a text. Input means, 13 is a search mark input means for inputting a specified search mark from several types of search marks at an arbitrary position in the text, and 14 is a text input means 12 and a search mark input means.
A sentence storage unit for storing the sentence and the search mark inputted in 13, a sentence output unit 15 for outputting the sentence and the search mark input sentence and the search mark to the sentence input means 12 and an output device such as a CRT or LBP, and 16 a sentence The search mark search unit includes means for designating a search mark to be searched from sentences in the sentence storage unit of the storage unit 14, searches the designated search mark, and moves the sentence input position to a corresponding position.

FIG. 2 shows an example of the search mark input means 12, in which several kinds of search marks are prepared in 21 and a comment section 22 is prepared so that the text creator can write down the purpose of using the search marks. I have to. In the output designation of 23, it is designated whether or not the corresponding mark is outputted to the output device. At 24, specify the search mark and insert the search mark at the current sentence input position.

FIG. 3 shows an embodiment for designating a search mark from among the 14 sentence storage sections. Reference numerals 31 to 33 have the same configuration as the search mark storage area 21 and the display output availability storage area 23 in FIG. There is a search mark storage area 34 for storing a designated search mark.

FIG. 4 shows a flowchart in the case of searching for a search mark from the text storage unit based on the configuration of FIGS. 1 to 3.

Hereinafter, an operation example will be described with reference to FIG. It is assumed that a sentence including a search mark has already been stored in the sentence storage unit. In the search mark specification of step 41, the third
In the figure, it is assumed that “check 1” is selected as an example, and “check 1” which has been input in the sentence in advance to check the sentence expression later.
Suppose you want to move the text input position to the location of the 1 "code. At this point, the text input position can be anywhere in the text.

In step 42, a process of actually searching for the specified search mark ("test 1") from the text storage unit is performed. If found, the process proceeds to step 43, and if not found, the process ends.

In step 43, a process of moving the sentence input position to the position of the search mark found in step 42 is performed.

In step 44, processing according to each purpose of the text creator is performed (in the present embodiment, since it is "test 1", the text expression is reviewed and, if necessary, corrected).

After performing processing such as correcting the text in step 44, the third
By specifying the search mark in the figure, the next search mark ("search 1") can be searched again, or another search mark can be newly searched (step 45).

Advantageous Effects of the Invention The present invention provides input means for inputting a character string, display means for displaying a character string input from the input means, and search code input means for inputting a search code not displayed on the display means into the character string. A sentence storage means for storing a character string including a search code, an instructing means for instructing a search code, and a search code designated by the instructing means being searched from sentences stored in the sentence storage means, and a corresponding search code And the control means for moving the character string input position to the position indicated by, there is no need to record the position information of the place that needs to be checked. Because the code entered in the character string is not displayed, it looks good and does not hinder editing. Set the search code and enter the character string at the position indicated by the searched search code. The position can be moved.
