JPH0535726A - Automatic paragraphing system of data for data producing device - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To automatically paragraph the input data based on the stage addition control information set previously. CONSTITUTION:When the paragraphing control information consisting of the form comparison information and the number of paragraphs to be added is inputted through an input means 1, an input data analyzing means 2 stores the paragraphing control information in a paragraphing control information storing part 6. When the data are inputted through the means 1, the means 2 compares the form comparison information included in the paragraphing information with the input data and decides whether a paragraphing position should be set or not. If so, a paragraphing setting means 3 sets the paragraphing position to a data processing means 4 based on the number of paragraphs included in the paragraphing control information. Then the means 4 adds the paragraphs to the input data based on the paragraphing position and displays the input data on a display 5.

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a data creating device such as a word processor and a program editor, and more particularly to an automatic data staging system in the data creating device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In the conventional data staging method in a data creating apparatus, a worker manually designates a staging while visually observing a display during data input.

[0003]

In the above-described data stepping method in the conventional data creating apparatus, it is necessary to manually re-step stepping every time the stepping position is changed, and the stepping position is also changed. When it was attempted to align the positions, it was necessary to confirm the stepped positions of other data, so the operation became complicated and there was the disadvantage that the burden on the operator was heavy.

In view of the above points, an object of the present invention is to provide an automatic data stepping system in a data creating apparatus capable of automatically stepping input data based on preset stepping control information. To do.

[0005]

The automatic data stepping method in the data creating apparatus of the present invention is a method of comparing data formats in a data creating apparatus which inputs data from an input means such as a keyboard and confirms the data on a display. When the step control information consisting of the information and the step number is input, the step control information is saved, and when the data is input, the format comparison information in the step control information is compared with the input data to set the step position. Input data analysis means for determining whether or not to perform, and when the input data analysis means determines to set the step position, the step processing is performed on the data processing means based on the step number in the step control information. Step setting means for setting the position, and the input data analyzed by the input data analyzing means is stepped according to the step setting position set by the step setting means, and is displayed on the display. And a Shimesuru said data processing means.

[0006]

In the automatic data stepping method in the data creating apparatus of the present invention, the input data analysis means saves the step control information when inputting the step control information including the format comparison information and the step number, and inputs the data. Sometimes it is judged whether the step position is set by comparing the format comparison information in the step control information with the input data, and the step setting means determines that the step position is set by the input data analysis means. At this time, the step position is set in the data processing means based on the step number in the step control information, and the data processing means is analyzed by the input data analysis means according to the step position set by the step setting means. The input data that is input is stepped and displayed on the display.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the structure of an automatic data stepping system in a data creating apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. The automatic data staging method in the data creating apparatus of the present embodiment is based on the input means 1 such as a keyboard and the staging control information storage unit 6 at the time of input of staging control information including format comparison information and staging number. The step control information is saved, and when the data is input, the format comparison information in the step control information stored in the step control information storage unit 6 is compared with the input data to determine whether to set the step position. Input data analysis means 2
And the step setting means 3 for setting the step position in the data processing means 4 based on the step number in the step control information when the input data analysis means 2 determines that the step position is to be set.
And a data processing means 4 for displaying the display 5 on the display 5 by stepping the input data analyzed by the input data analyzing means 2 according to the stepping position set by the stepping setting means 3, and a display 5 comprising a cathode ray tube or the like. , And a step control information storage unit 6 for storing the step control information.

Next, the operation of the data automatic stepping system in the data creating apparatus of the present embodiment thus constructed will be described.

Prior to the normal input of data, the step control information is input from the input means 1 in the step control information input mode. The step control information is a plurality of entries including format comparison information for detecting the start position of the step in the data (end position of the step of the previous data) and the number of steps indicating the step position. It is configured. For example, the format comparison information is information that detects a headline of a sentence in a format such as “Chapter x chapter”, “Chapter x section” (x is an arbitrary character).

When stepped control information is input from the input means 1, the input data analysis means 2 stores and saves it in the stepped control information storage section 6.

When the input of the step control information is completed, the mode is switched to the normal data input mode, and the normal data is input from the input means 1.

When normal data is input from the input means 1, the input data analysis means 2 refers to the step control information stored in the step control information storage section 6 to obtain the format comparison information and the input data. Successive comparison is checked, and if they match, the number of steps corresponding to the matched format comparison information is notified to the step setting means 3.

The step setting means 3 is the input data analysis means 2
When the step number is notified from, the step position is set in the data processing means 4 based on the notified step number, and the step position preset in the data processing means 4 is changed.

On the other hand, the input data analyzed by the input data analysis means 2 is passed from the input data analysis means 2 to the data processing means 4, and is stepped and displayed at the stepped position set in the data processing means 4. It is displayed in 5.

[0016]

As described above, according to the present invention, the step control information is stored when the step control information including the format comparison information and the step number is input, and the format comparison information in the step control information is input when the data is input. And the input data are compared to determine whether to set the step position, and the number of steps in the step control information when the input data analysis means determines to make the step. By providing the step processing setting means for setting the step processing position on the data processing means based on the above, the input data is automatically stepped to the desired step processing position only by inputting the data. Since it is not necessary to specify the step every time, there is an effect that the burden on the operator can be significantly reduced.

Further, since the stepped positions are automatically unified, there is an effect that it is possible to efficiently create well-formatted data.
