It is essential to realize this at a low price.

Conventionally, this type of information processing was realized using software as follows.

(1) Edit/output after inputting all units of arrangement of symbol strings to be edited and format symbol strings in the program.

(2) The -unit of the arrangement of the symbol string to be edited and the format symbol string,
Edit and output each time you input a unit.

(3) The output position on the output area for the results of m collections of symbol strings to be edited is controlled by sequential control that outputs the editing results in order.

(4) The output position on the output area for the editing result of the symbol string to be edited is controlled by controlling the relative position.

(5) The input format of the symbol string to be edited and the format symbol string is simply a sequence of symbol strings.

Furthermore, the command words possessed by conventional information processing apparatuses are limited to the execution of text processing.
