Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a document preparation device having a kanji dictionary, and particularly when selecting a kanji compound word, if there is no suitable kanji compound word displayed, a single kanji character is displayed. The present invention relates to a document creating apparatus for continuously displaying and selecting.

[Conventional technology]

Many methods have already been announced and put into practical use as a method of displaying a kanji compound word corresponding to a reading input by a keyboard.

For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 55-153029 (hereinafter referred to as "Koho No. 1 technology") discloses Yoshihisa, which corresponds to a conventional example of the present invention. Ko No. 1 technology is designed so that not only single kanji but also kanji idioms can be selected. That is, as the capacity of the built-in storage means of the document preparation device becomes large, it becomes possible to have not only the conventional single kanji dictionary but also a kanji idiom dictionary.

However, compared to single kanji, the number of kanji idioms is large and a large dictionary capacity is required. For example,
In a normal magnetic floppy disk, the storage capacity of one disk is 1
It is about megabytes, and considering the document creation program area, the area that can be secured as a dictionary is at most about 300 kilobytes. In a dictionary of this capacity, even though general-purpose kanji compound words can be registered, the number of people or place names that can be registered is limited.

The operation of the conventional document creating apparatus will be described by taking the case of selecting the person name "Kanji" as an example.

First, enter "KANJI" in Roman characters to read the kanji compound words using the keyboard. When the key for converting kanji is operated, "1 kanji, 2 secretary, 3 kanji, 4 kanji" and candidate kanji idioms are displayed on the screen. Since this candidate Kanji compound word does not have "Kanji", the document creator must operate the key for cancellation. Enter "KAN" again and operate the key for Kanji conversion. On the screen, "1 to 2
“Kan 3kan 4kan 5kan” is displayed as a candidate single kanji, and the document creator selects 5 “kan”. Next, enter "JI" and operate the key for Kanji conversion. On the screen, "1
Characters 2 o'clock 3 ears 4 ji 5th ”are displayed, and the document creator selects 4 ji.

As can be seen from the above series of operations, when the Kanji compound word “Kanji” for “KANJI” is not registered, the work of forming the Kanji compound word “Kanji” on the screen becomes complicated.

[Means for solving problems]

A document creation device having a kanji dictionary of the present invention includes a single kanji dictionary in which a single kanji is registered for reading a single kanji and a single kanji for each single kanji that composes a kanji phrase for reading a kanji compound. Search a single kanji dictionary from the kanji compound dictionary in which the combination of addresses of registered locations in the dictionary is registered, a conversion key for instructing the conversion operation of the input kanji to kanji, and a mode for searching the kanji compound dictionary. A kanji compound word dictionary that corresponds to the reading of the input kanji compound words according to the operation of the keyboard that includes the mode switch key for instructing the switching to the mode that is used and the conversion key that follows the kanji compound word reading input. In addition to searching and displaying, the reading of the input Kanji phrase is divided into multiple parts according to the operation of the mode switching key following the operation of the conversion key, and the corresponding single It is obtained by a document creation control means for sequentially displaying search from a single Chinese character dictionary characters.

[Action]

In the document creation device having this Kanji dictionary, the Kanji compound word corresponding to the input Kanji compound word reading is retrieved from the Kanji compound word dictionary by the document creation control means according to the operation of the conversion key following the input of the Kanji compound word reading. Is displayed. If the desired kanji phrase is not registered in the kanji phrase dictionary, the operator operates the mode switching key. Then, the document creation control means divides the reading of the input kanji compound word into a plurality of pieces, retrieves the corresponding single kanji character from the single kanji dictionary, and sequentially displays them. Therefore, it is possible to create an unregistered Kanji compound word very easily with a few key operations.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 shows one embodiment of a document creating apparatus according to the present invention.

The keyboard 1 is provided with a conversion key 11, a cancel key 12 and a mode switching key 13. The conversion key 11 may be replaced by a space key or the like. The conversion key 11 enables a conversion operation into a kanji for a normal kanji idiom reading input. Kanji compound reading can be entered in either hiragana or romaji. The cancel key 12 is a key for returning to the original phrase reading display when there is no desired candidate phrase displayed by the conversion operation.

The keyboard controller 2 encodes the key input, for example, 8
Convert to bit-parallel key data.

The document creation control unit 3 receives the key data from the keyboard control unit 2 and performs Kanji selection and display. Normally, an 8-bit microcomputer is used.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a single-kanji dictionary, which is connected to the document creation control unit 3 via a single-kanji dictionary search device 41. In this, font patterns such as numbers, hiragana, and Roman letters are registered in addition to single kanji.

A kanji compound word dictionary 5 is connected to the document creation control unit 3 via a kanji compound word dictionary searching device 51. In this, combinations of single kanji for reading idioms to form various idioms are registered. Since all idioms are composed of a combination of single Kanji characters, it is not necessary to register the font pattern in this idiom dictionary, and the combination of the addresses of the registered positions in the single Kanji dictionary 4 of each single Kanji composing the Kanji compound words is registered. Has been done.

In addition, in order to confirm the key input and the content of the created document,
Display 6 and printer 7 are interfaces
The document creation control unit 3 is connected via 61 and 71.

Further, the document creation control unit 3 is connected to the RAM 8. this
The RAM 8 is used not only as a stack for the operation program of the document creation control section 3 but also as a work area, for temporarily registering a created document.

The magnetic storage device 9 is connected to the document creation control unit 3 via an interface 91. The one that is widely used is one that uses a magnetic floppy disk.
The operation program of the document creation control unit 3 and the data of the single Kanji dictionary 4 and the Kanji phrase dictionary 5 are stored.
You can also save the created document.

The structure of the single Kanji dictionary 4 will be described with reference to FIG. The above single kanji dictionary 4 has a single kanji reading address 42 and a candidate number 43,
And a single Chinese character font pattern 44. All of these are binary digital data, but here, for the sake of understanding, instead of digital data, Roman characters and corresponding Chinese characters are directly shown.

The structure of the Kanji compound word dictionary 5 will be described with reference to FIG. The Kanji compound word dictionary 5 comprises a Kanji compound word reading address 52, a candidate number 53, and a single Kanji combination data 54 which is a combination of addresses of registered positions in the single Kanji dictionary 4 of each single Kanji constituting a Kanji compound word. All of these are binary digital data, but here, for the sake of understanding, instead of the digital data, Roman letters and corresponding Kanji compound words are directly illustrated.

When "KANJI" is input from the keyboard 1 and the conversion key 11 is operated, the document creation control unit 3 causes the Kanji compound word dictionary 5 to send a single Kanji combination data corresponding to "KANJI" via the Kanji compound word search device 51. Request to output. The Kanji compound word reading address 5 of "KANJI" in the Kanji compound word dictionary 5
For 2, the four types of single-kanji combination data 54 are registered. Single Kanji combination data searched here as candidates
54 is immediately selected from the single-kanji font pattern 44 of the single-kanji dictionary 4 described above, and the candidate phrase, "1 kanji, 2 secretary, 3 kanji, 4 kanji," is displayed on the display 6. However, the desired "Kanji" is not registered. Then, the document creator operates the mode switching key 13. That is,
It may be considered that the mode of Kanji compound word search was switched to the mode of single Kanji search.

The document creation control unit 3 divides "KANJI" into a first half part and a second half part. There are two possibilities here: "KA-NJI" and "KAN-JI". There can be no single Kanji corresponding to the reading "NJI", so "KAN-J" is automatically used here.
The "I" split is selected. As a result, the single-kanji font pattern 44 corresponding to the single-kanji reading address 42 of "KAN",
It is searched from the single-kanji dictionary 4, displayed on the display 6, and put in the selection standby state. That is, on the display 6, "1
"2 Ma 3 Kan 4 Kan 5kan" is displayed. By simply operating the mode switching key 13 once, the document creator can divide the reading of these Kanji idioms and display the candidate single Kanji.

If the document creator keyed in "5", the candidate number "5"
Select, "Kan" is displayed on the document, and then the candidate single kanji corresponding to "JI""1 character 2 o'clock 3 ear 4 ji 5th"
Is displayed. Similarly, by selecting "4",
"Ji" is selected, and the desired idiom "Kanji" is formed.

FIG. 4 is a flow chart showing a series of operations of the present invention.

Although the present invention uses the microcomputer as the document creation control unit 3, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. Further, the single kanji dictionary 4 and the kanji idiom dictionary 5 may be divided into one memory or the like by area designation. Furthermore, complex kanji compound words can be easily formed by dividing them into multiple parts.

〔The invention's effect〕

As described above, according to the present invention, when the desired kanji compound word is not registered in the kanji compound word dictionary for the kanji compound word reading input, the operator does not need to re-input the kanji compound word reading and simply Just by operating one mode switching key, the reading of the input kanji compound words is divided into multiple parts, and the corresponding single kanji is searched from the single kanji dictionary and displayed sequentially, so it is extremely fast.
