According to the present invention, the sentence memory stores the sentences inputted by the input means and collected, and the specifying means specifies a part of the contents stored in the sentence memory. Then, the part of the text memory can be transferred to the memo memory and stored in the memo memory as memo data. This memo memory can also store memo contents input by the input means. In this way, the input operation of the memo memory I\ becomes easy, and in particular, the contents stored in the text memory can be used as memo data, so that operability can be improved.

Embodiment FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention. A display means 1 such as a cathode ray tube can display the contents stored in the text memory 4 and the contents stored in the memo memory etc. by the function of a processing circuit 2 realized by a microcomputer or the like. Input means 3 such as keyboard
is equipped with a plurality of keys for inputting sentences to be read and memo contents, and further includes a cursor key 3a for moving the cursor displayed on the display means 1, and a cursor key 3a for moving the cursor displayed on the display means 1, and for inputting part of the stored contents of the text memory 4. It is provided with an area designation key 3b for specifying an area, and a memo key 3C for entering a memo handling mode for inputting and storing memo contents into the memo memory 5.

The text memory 4 stores the text input and edited by the input means 3, and also specifies the area for the first time by operating the pointer 4a for storing the address of the cursor position and the area specification key 3b. A pointer 4b for storing a position address and its area specification key 3b
A pointer 4c is provided for storing the address of the position where the second area designation is made. The memo memory 5 is for managing memo contents page by page, by slitting multiple pages, and one page has a fixed length of, for example, 10 characters per line x 10 lines. However, the memo contents for each page of the memo memory 5 can be displayed on one screen of the display means 1 one page at a time. The #atA text stored in the text memory 4 can be displayed on the screen of the display means 1.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the contents of the text memory 4 and the memo memory 5, and 3I2I is a flowchart for explaining the operation of the processing circuit 2. Referring to these drawings, it is assumed that the sentence memory 4 stores the sentence ``AIUEOKAKIKUKEKO'', which is a collection of Ii, shown in FIG. 2(1). Step s1 to step s2 of 3rd I2I
, first, the content of the text memory 4 and the cursor displayed as an underline below the character f) of each text memory are displayed on the display means 1.
visually displayed. At this time, the cursor pointer 4a holds the address where the character "A" is stored in the text memory 4, and the cursor 6 holds the address where the character "A" is stored, as shown in FIG. 2 (1). It is located at the bottom. This cursor 6 can be moved by operating the cursor key 3 rt. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the cursor 6 is positioned below the character "A".

In step S4, when the area designation key 3b is operated, the contents of the pointer 4a at the cursor position are changed to step s5.
Then, the process moves to step S6, and the cursor position pointer 4[) when the area designation key 3b was pressed for the first time is stored. With this, the 2112th! As shown by I(2), the characters "AJ" are displayed in a frame 7.

Furthermore, the cursor key 3=t is operated to move the cursor 6, and each time the cursor is moved, the contents of the cursor position (g) pointer 4a are updated in step S3.

With the cursor positioned and moved to the character "ki" shown in FIG. The cursor position pointer 4C when the area designation key is pressed for the second time is stored in step S7, and the character "ki" is displayed in a frame 8.

Therefore, in step S8, the memo key 3C is pressed fj
Then, the data from the character "a" at the address indicated by pointer 4b at the position where the area was specified for the first time up to the character "ki" addressed by pointer 4c at the position at which the area was specified is stored in the memo memory. 5, the data is transferred and stored in the memo memory 5 in step S9. The above processing action f
It is possible to designate an area of a part of the text stored in the text memory 4 and to transfer it to a memo memory 5 separate from the text memory 4 and store it as a memo content.

At this time, the text memory 4 stored in the memo memory 5
The contents of the store are not deleted in the text memory 4 at t5, but remain stored in the text memory 4 as they are. In this way, part of the content stored in the text memory 4 can be transferred to the memo memory 5 as memo content for use. This eliminates the need to re-enter memo content using the input means 3 as in the conventional technology, and improves operability.

In order to store memo contents in the memo memory 5 by the input operation fj of the input means 3, the memo key 3C may be pressed prior to inputting the memo contents.

In this way, as shown in Figure 2 (3), the memo memory 5 stores the text from the character "a" to the character "ki" specified in the area of the text memory 4 as memo contents.

The contents of the memo memory 5 can be paged through the display means 1, page erased, registered in an external storage means I\ such as a Frembie disk, read from the external storage means, and printed by the printing means 9. The printing means 9 can also print out the contents stored in the text memory 4.

Further, a clock circuit 10 is provided, and when the memo contents are partially transferred from the text memory 4 to the memo memory 5 or inputted by the input means 3 and transferred, the date 1 is transferred to the memo memory 5. size and time at the same time,
It may be stored in the memo memory 5, and in this way, when the memo content is displayed by the display means 1 and when it is printed by the printing means 9, the immediate value of the memo content is increased.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, a part of the contents stored in the text memory is specified by the specifying means, and a part of the contents stored in the specified text memory is specified by the specifying means. can be transferred and stored in the memo memory and used as memo data. Therefore, there is no need to input the same sentence to be edited again using the input means in order to store it in the memo memory, and operability is improved. Furthermore, since a part of the contents stored in the text memory can be transferred to the memo memory in this way, it is possible to prevent errors in memo data due to input errors when inputting memo data.
