Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily confirm the modifying information on the characters, the words, etc., of a registered document pointed by a cursor by performing a mode display and another mode display for the modifying information on the characters of another document pointed by the cursor. CONSTITUTION:When the key input is performed through a keyboard 1, the key data is read to decide whether the key input commands a mode display or not. If so, the underlines, etc., included in the modifying information 6C, 6E and 6F of the characters pointed by a cursor are displayed. Then the key data is read at the key input to decide whether this key input commands the end of the mode display or not. If not, a ruler display is performed on the basis of the cursor position based on the modifying information on the characters pointed by the cursor, i.e., the mode displays stored in the storage areas 6G and 6D or the page format information, i.e., the line format information stored in a storage area 61. Then the key input is reset. If so, the document including the characters and the words stored in a storage area 6J before the mode display and pointed by the cursor is displayed again. Then the original state is reset.

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

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the invention.

In the figure, numeral 3 is an LCD display as a one-line display. Reference numeral 1 denotes a keyboard as a mode setting means, which has character keys, function keys, cursor movement keys, setting keys, etc., and is a means for displaying the character modification mode of the character displayed on the LCD display 3. It is something to do.

The keyboard 1 also contains character modification information.

Document information including character data, print control command data, etc. is input. Using the keyboard 1, modification information of registered characters can be changed, and the contents of mode setting information stored in the RAM can be freely changed.

A RAM 6 serves as a mode storage means, and includes a line buffer for storing one or more lines of character strings input from the keyboard 1.

The RAMs 6A to 6J are storage areas for storing print/display mode, typing mode, page format information, modification information of nine characters in the automatic correction buffer, and print/display control information when controlling printing or display of a document. That is,
The line feed mode is stored in RAM 6A, and the line pitch mode is stored in RAM 6B.

The font mode is stored in RAM6C, the character size is stored in RAM6D, the underline mode is stored in RAM6E, the bold mode is stored in RAM6F, the shaded area is stored in RAM6G, and the mode is stored in RAM6G.
M6H has typing modes (C/C mode, L/L
mode, document registration/registered document editing mode) are stored in the RAM 61. stores page format information (top margin, page end position, left and right margin positions, hot zone information, number of registered tabs/decimal tabs, tab/decimal tab positions), and RAM6J stores characters,
It also stores character modification information and printing information.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a storage area (TEXT) which constitutes a part of the storage means and is used to store the registered document, and includes mode information of the registered document, page format information of two characters, character modification information, print control information (print command ) are stored.

Recording areas 78 to 7G are storage areas for storing mode information, which is modification information of the character indicated by the cursor of the registered document. That is, the storage areas 7A and 7B store the line feed mode and line pitch mode when registering a document and when printing a registered document, the storage area 7C stores the font mode, and the storage area 7D stores the character size. The underline mode is stored in the storage area 7E,
The storage area 7F stores the bold mode, the storage area 7G stores the shaded modes, the storage area 7H stores the registration mode (document registration/registered document editing mode), and the storage area 7I stores the registration mode (document registration/registered document editing mode). Page format information (top margin position, page end position, left and right margin positions, hot zone information, number of registered tabs/decimal tabs, tab/decimal tab positions, etc.) is stored, and the storage area 7J contains characters, character modification information, and printing. Control information (
Information (including print control commands such as centering) is stored.

4 is a ROM in which processing procedures, various control procedures, and control information are stored in advance. Reference numeral 5 denotes a printer for recording characters such as letters.

2 is a CPU in the form of a microcomputer, which together with a keyboard constitutes mode reading means. CPU
Reference numeral 2 serves as a mode display means for displaying the read character modification mode on an LCD display. C.P.
In response to a print instruction command, U2 cuts out lines of characters, generates print data, and executes format information based on the contents stored in the RAM. In particular, when printing a registered document, the document is controlled to be printed using character modification information set in an arbitrary print mode.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of a mode display control procedure stored in the ROM 4.

When there is a key force on the keyboard 1, key data is read in step S1, and in step S2 it is determined whether the key force is a mode display command. As a result of the determination, if the determination is negative, the process proceeds to other processing, and if the determination is affirmative, the process proceeds to step S3, where the modification information 6C, 6E,
Displays the underline, bold, and font modes stored in 6F. Next, in step S4,
When a key force is applied from the keyboard 1, key data is read, and in step S5, it is determined whether the key force is an instruction to end mode display. As a result of the determination, if a negative determination is made, the process advances to step S6, and in step S6, modification information of the character indicated by the cursor,
That is, the mode display of the mode stored in the storage areas 6G and 6D (shading indicates the mode and font size), or the page format information, that is, the line format information (left and right margins, hot zones, tab/print) stored in the storage area 6■. After displaying a ruler based on the cursor position using the decimal tab, etc., the process returns to step S4.

On the other hand, if an affirmative determination is made in step S5, the process proceeds to step S7, and in step S7, the document containing the character or word indicated by the cursor stored in the storage area 6J before the mode display is displayed again. and step S
Return to l.

In this embodiment, with this configuration, especially when editing a registered document, the mode display of the mode setting state and the mode display of the modification information of the character indicated by the cursor of a document different from the mode display are performed. As a result, as shown in Fig. 4, it becomes possible to easily check the modification information such as characters and words indicated by the cursor of the already registered document.
It becomes possible to easily modify and print characters or documents. In addition, on a display with less than 20 digits, when displaying mode change information for modifying characters and words indicated by the cursor in a document before and after the characters, only the minimum necessary mode change information can be displayed. Characters can be displayed more effectively. As a result, the header section (formerly address section (A), 1 item section (I
), the memo section (M) can be easily changed to a quadruple-width shaded area, thereby improving the performance and operability of the character processing device.

In this embodiment, the processing procedure in the typing mode (C/C mode, L/L mode) has been explained in particular, but step S3. In step s6, the modification information of the character indicated by the cursor of the registered document that has already been registered, that is, the mode stored in the storage areas 70 to 7G (font mode, the shaded area indicates the mode).

The page format information, that is, the line format information (left and right margins, hot zones, tabs/decimal tabs, etc.) stored in the storage area 7I, is used to display a ruler based on the cursor position. , in step S7, the character indicated by the cursor stored in the storage area 7J,
Documents containing words may be redisplayed.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, with the above configuration, the mode display of the modification information of the character specified by the cursor in the document can be easily performed, and the editing efficiency of the document can be improved. and improve operability.
