Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a document preparation device such as a Japanese word processor.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional Japanese word processor, when a series of documents is divided into a predetermined unit and the document is itemized into a plurality of items, the cursor key is operated at the position of the last word of the item to be broken. The operation of positioning the cursor and then operating the space key to shift the sentence after the last portion backward is repeated.

[0003]

However, when a series of documents is edited into a bulleted document, the cursor key and the space key are required to be operated many times, which is very troublesome and takes a lot of time. It was In addition, when checking and editing the itemized document created by such complicated operations, the itemized document is displayed in a wide range. There was a problem that could not be done. An object of the present invention is to make it possible to edit a document that is continuously displayed for each item by breaking the line for each item.

[0004]

The means of the present invention are as follows. The document data storage unit 1 (see the functional block diagram of FIG. 1, the same applies hereinafter) stores document data including a bullet delimiter code. The item start position storage unit 2 stores the item start position. The display means 3 continuously displays the document data stored in the document data storage means. The instruction means 4 instructs to change the display form of the document data displayed on the display means from continuous display to itemized display. In response to the change instruction of the instruction means, the bullet point display means 5 divides the document data by a bullet point delimiter code and displays the bullet points from a position based on the bullet point start position.

[Operation] The operation of the means of the present invention is as follows. The document data stored in the document data storage means 1 is continuously displayed by the display means 3. In this state, when the instruction means 4 gives an instruction to display the bullet points,
The bullet point display means 5 divides the document data by a bullet point delimiter code and displays the bullet points from the position based on the bullet point start position stored in the bullet point start position storage means 2. Therefore, the display form of the document data can be easily changed from continuous display to itemized display.

The display control unit 16 is a circuit for converting the input data from the key input unit 11 and the document data in the document memory 14 into display signals and displaying them on the display unit 17. In this case, the display unit 17 is, for example, It consists of a CRT display. The print control unit 18 is a circuit that causes the print unit 19 including a printer to print the input data from the key input unit 11 and the document data in the document memory 14.

[0009] Operation Next, the flowchart in FIG. 3, the operation will be described referring to the display state diagram of FIG. 4 and FIG. 5. Now, the case where the document shown in FIG. 4 is input in itemized form and written in the document memory 14 will be described.

First, in order to input the document "What is an invention?" In the normal mode, the key-0 is operated to set the mode (0). At this time, steps A1 to A3 of the flow chart in FIG. 3 are executed, and the mode (0) is set in the A register. Next, "What is the invention?" Is input from the key input unit 11 using the character keys. At this time, step A
After 1, it is judged NO in each of the processing steps A2, A4, A7, A18, A20 and A22, and the process proceeds to step A24. As a result, the normal processing of the Japanese word processor is executed by the CPU 13, the above-mentioned sentence “Invention” is written in the document memory 14, and is displayed on the display unit 17. At this point, the cursor is at the position indicated by symbol 21 in FIG.

Next, in order to set the mode (1), the Key is set.
Operate -1. At this time, the process proceeds to step A4 via steps A1 and A2, and the determination process of Key-1 is performed.
Then, the process proceeds to step A5 and the mode (1) is set in the A register.
Is set. Further, in step A6, the information of the current cursor position set in the Y register, that is, the digit of the symbol 21 in FIG. 4 is written in the B register.

Next, when a document "using natural law" is input from the character keys, the steps A1, A2, A
4, A7, A18, A20, A22, A24 are executed and written in the document memory 14.

Next, when the Key-R is operated to execute a line feed, the key operation is discriminated in step A7 via steps A1, A2 and A4, and then the process proceeds to step A8 and A
The mode (1) of the register is determined. As a result, the current digit position information (the digit indicated by symbol 22 in FIG. 4) of the cursor in the Y register is set in the C register (step A9). Then, in step A10, Code-E indicating the batch deletion portion is written in the digit corresponding area set in the C register of the document memory 14, and then step A
In 11, it is judged whether the data (digit position information) of the C register matches the maximum digit of the format of this embodiment. Therefore, it is NO at this time, and the process proceeds to step A12, the data of the C register is incremented by 1, and the process returns to step A10. Less than,
Until it is determined in step A11 that the data in the C register matches the maximum digit of the format, steps A10 to A1
2 is repeatedly executed, and as a result, Code-E is successively written in the document memory 14 from the column next to the column indicated by the symbol 22 in FIG. 4 to the last maximum column of the line. When the data in the C register reaches the maximum digit, step A11
From A to A14, information that is one digit smaller than the data of the B register (digit position information of symbol 21 in FIG. 4) is set in the C register, and the data of the B register is set in the Y register. Next, in step A15, it is determined whether or not the data in the C register is "0". If NO, the process proceeds to step A16, and Code-E is written in the digit corresponding area of the document memory 14 corresponding to the data in the C register. Next, at step A17, the data in the C register is
Then, the process returns to step A15.

Thereafter, the processes of steps A15 to A17 are repeated until the data of the C register becomes "0" in step A15, and as a result, from the first digit of the second line to the line feed of FIG. Code-E is written in the digit corresponding area of the document memory 14 up to one digit before the digit indicated by the symbol 23.

After the above processing, the cursor moves to step A14.
Since it is located at the position indicated by the data of the Y register (the digit of symbol 23 which is the same as symbol 21 in FIG. 4) held in step 2, the sentence "Technical creation" is keyed in, and finally Key-
When R is operated and a line feed is performed, the sentence “of technical creation” is written in the document memory 14 and the last word “of the technical creation” is written in the document memory 14 in the same manner as when the sentence “using natural law” is keyed. From the next digit to the maximum digit of the line (second line), and then in the digit area of the document memory 14 from the first digit after the line feed to the position before the cursor position after the line feed.
-E is written.

K after the keystroke of the following sentence "advanced"
Start a new line with ey-R, and press K after pressing the key
When line feed is performed by ey-R, the same processing as described above is executed. At this time, the input text is displayed on the display unit 17 as shown in FIG.

When the Key-E is operated and the batch deletion is executed in this display state, steps A1, A2, A
After each processing of 4, A7, A18, proceed to step A19,
All Cos in the sentence of FIG. 4 written in the document memory 14
de-E is searched and deleted, and as a result, the sentence of the bullet point of FIG. 4 is re-edited into a continuous sentence as shown in FIG.

[0018]

[Other Embodiments] Next, the text form of the clause of FIG. 4 is edited and created on the document memory 14 as in the above embodiment, and the edited text is edited on the document memory 14 without re-editing. Another embodiment will be described in which the document format of FIG. 4 or the document format of FIG. 4 can be arbitrarily output. In this embodiment, Key-I and Key-D shown in FIG.
Is used, and step A2 of the flowchart of FIG.
0 to A23 are executed.

An outline of the operation will now be described with reference to FIG.
When the Key-D is operated after the document of the above itemized clause is created in the document memory 14, the fact is judged in step A22 of FIG. 3, and the data "0" is written in the D register. In response to this, the CPU 13 judges the data of Code-E in the document memory 14 as a space code when displaying or printing the document data in the document memory 14, and as a result, displays or displays as shown in FIG. The printed document is converted into a continuous document as shown in FIG.

On the other hand, when the Key-I is operated after the display conversion of the document of FIG. 4 into the document of FIG. 5 as described above, that fact is judged at step A20 of FIG. 3, and the data "1" is stored in the D register. Is set. As a result, the CPU 13
Judges that Code-E in the document memory 14 has no code and performs a display process or a print process, and as a result, the document of FIG. 5 is converted into the document of the clause as shown in FIG. In addition,
Such mutual conversion processing is invalid because the document memory 14 is re-edited after the Key-E is executed.

[0021]

[Other Embodiments] Still another embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6A, in the document to be written in the document memory 14, a clause specification code for designating the position where the clause starts by the operation of Key-I and a clause by the operation of Key-R. The delimiter code is stored.

Therefore, when the itemized document format is designated by a predetermined operation, a space code is automatically set between the itemized item delimiter code and the itemized item delimiter code in the document memory 14, as shown in FIG. Can be created.

The document of the itemized clause of FIG. 6 (2) can be similarly executed by the operation of Key-E described above.

[0024]

According to the present invention, since a continuously displayed document can be line-breaked item by item and edited into a bulleted item, the input document can be efficiently checked and edited in a continuous displayed state, and then the bulleted item can be edited. Document data can be output in this state.
