Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce the documents with high efficiency by using a paragraph list memory means which divides the document information and stores these divided information in the form of a list. CONSTITUTION:A dictionary part 3 stores the information and the expression avoidable the letters which are necessary for conversion of the input KANA (Japanese syllabary) words into KANJI (Chinese character) after dividing them for each paragraph so that the independent accesses are possible to the divided information. A memory 7 includes the memory areas for a text buffer, a paragraph list buffer and a list process No. buffer respectively. Then the information on the stored documents, paragraphs, etc., are given to a display memory VRAM5 and then displayed on a CRT display 6. In such a constitution, the selection of unnecessary paragraphs can be omitted and the documents are produced with high efficiency.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention [Field of Application in Business] The present invention provides a document creation support device that enables the creation of a document such as a letter by a simple operation such as selecting a displayed paragraph. The present invention relates to a document creation support device that is capable of displaying the next paragraph without incorporating the paragraph into the document.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, this type of document creation support device has a configuration in which a user must always select (incorporate) a displayed paragraph into a document.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, with the former technique, the user first performs a selection operation (incorporates it into the document) even if the user considers the paragraph unnecessary, and after displaying the paragraph, the user selects the unnecessary paragraph. Since paragraphs were deleted from documents created by this document creation support process, there was a problem in that efficient document creation work could not be performed.

[Means for Solving the Problems (and Effects)] The present invention provides a manual means for inputting document creation information, a display means for displaying the document creation information, a storage means for storing the document information, and a document creation method. a paragraph list storage means for storing information divided and arranged like a table; and a paragraph for displaying the paragraph on the display means based on the information stored in the paragraph list storage means. By selecting the display control means and the displayed paragraph,
This is achieved by providing a document creation support means that enables the creation of documents.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the character processing device of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 in the figure is a keyboard, which has an array of keys for inputting the information necessary for document creation (kana, numbers, alphabets, symbols), moving the cursor, calling up a paragraph list, skipping paragraphs, and giving selection control/instructions. ing. The keyboard 1 is also equipped with kana-kanji conversion keys, etc., which are necessary as a keyboard for processing Japanese characters. ROM
Reference numeral 2 denotes a read-only fixed memory, which stores the control procedure by the CPU 4, for example, the control procedure shown in FIG.

3 is the dictionary section, which contains information necessary to convert kana (kanji reading information) manually written words into kanji, and expressions used in the field of letters, as shown in Figure 3. It is divided into paragraphs or words and stored so that each can be accessed independently.

The CPU is a processing section consisting of a microprocessor that controls the entire apparatus of the present invention, and performs calculations, logical judgments, etc. for character processing. 7 is memory, text buffer,
There is a storage area for a paragraph list buffer list processing number buffer, which is a memory for storing document information, paragraphs, paragraph numbers, etc., and by giving information such as documents and paragraphs stored here to the display memory VRAM 5, It is displayed on the CRT display 6.

The FDD 8 is an external storage control device that stores created documents and the like in an external storage medium, and reads document information and the like stored in the external storage medium. PR9 is a printer that prints out created documents, etc. 6 The operation of this embodiment, which consists of the above configurations, will be explained with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

First, in Sl, it waits for the user to instruct the paragraph list to be used from the keyboard. Here, for example, if the user wants to create a letter "r" declining a new transaction, the keyboard operation is required to make the image processing understand in which paragraph list the paragraph "refusing a new transaction" is stored. For example, by operating the paragraph call key, the type of paragraph is displayed in a menu format, and the cursor is positioned and selected. In S2, the paragraph list specified in Sl is stored in the dictionary. At the same time, the processing number of the paragraph in the memory 7 is initialized.An example of storing a paragraph list is shown in Fig. 3.The storage format is such that the processing order (display order) is indicated at the left end. Paragraphs are arranged next to the number shown. Each paragraph is separated by "/", and when an individual paragraph is selected, the information separated by "/" is displayed in the fourth column. Display in list format as shown in Figure 5.6. Such processing is performed in order starting from 1.

In S3, the paragraph pointed to by the process number set in S2, 58, etc. is extracted from the memory 7. For example, if the process number is 14, the paragraph to be extracted is "
I would like to reply to you as soon as possible./First of all, I would like to say hello. , S4 searches for "/" in the information extracted in S3, edits the extracted paragraph on the VRAM, and displays it on the CRT 6, as shown in FIG.
In S5, the process waits for the user's (operator's) operation to select the displayed paragraph (operation of the KBI cursor key and selection key). If a selection operation has been performed here, the process proceeds to S7, where the cursor is inserted into the document being edited in the text buffer, and the selected paragraph is incorporated.

In other words, insert the selected paragraph into the text buffer. If an operation other than a selection operation has been performed, the process advances to S6, and it is checked whether or not the display paragraph/skip key has been operated. If it is a display paragraph skip instruction, the process advances to S8, and 1 is added to the list processing number in the memory 7 in order to display the next paragraph. For example, if the processing number is 14, the processing number will be 14 in order to be able to display the next paragraph "I wish your company continued development./I wish your company prosperity." is added to 15, and the display memory V
Store it in RAM at the location shown in the figure. If the operation is other than a display paragraph skip instruction, the process returns to S5 after performing cursor movement processing, etc. In S9, S
It is checked whether the list processing number in the memory 7 has reached the last value of the paragraph list to determine whether the information stored in the paragraph list read in step 2 has been completed. If it has been done, it means that it has been completed, and the document creation support process is ended. If other information still exists in the paragraph list, the process returns to S3 to process the next information.

[Other Examples] In this example, the individual paragraphs stored in the paragraph list are separated by "/", but there is no need to be particular about this, and you can specify where each paragraph starts and ends. In this embodiment, the display order of each paragraph is such that the processing order is stored in the paragraph list, but it is also possible to simply process the paragraphs one after another from the beginning.

Further, in the above embodiment, the paragraphs are read from the dictionary section, but the paragraphs may be stored in an external storage device and read from there. In addition, in this actual TFI example, when a displayed paragraph is selected, it is automatically incorporated into the document, but a buffer is provided so that it is incorporated into the text document after all paragraphs have been selected. The selected paragraph number, the selection number therein, and the coordinate position in the text may be stored in such a buffer. At this time, the progress may be displayed so that the user can understand.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, when the user instructs to skip a displayed paragraph, the next paragraph is displayed unconditionally, but information identifying paragraphs that cannot be skipped and paragraphs that can be skipped is - When the user issues a display paragraph/skip instruction, it is checked whether the currently displayed paragraph can be skipped, and the next paragraph is displayed only if it is skippable. Also good.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, it is not necessary to perform unnecessary paragraph selection operations, so there is an effect that document creation work can be performed efficiently.

In addition, by using the paragraph list realized by the present invention, you can create documents such as letters by simply selecting the paragraphs that are displayed one after another, so you do not have to worry about writing documents such as letters. It has the advantage of being easy to create and reducing the burden of work on the user.
