Abstract

PURPOSE: To make it possible to display a guide without being influenced by a changed operating system by providing this keyboard with a guide input means for inputting a function key guide, a guide display means, a display device on the keyboard, and a means for storing the guide. CONSTITUTION: A guide input/maintenance operating system 1 is started and a guide for a program to be used is registered in a guide storage device 2 built in a keyboard device. The registered guide controls the guide display means 3 10 the keyboard device and a preceding guide is preferentially outputted to the display device 4 on the keyboard. When a guide using frequency reset switch 6 is depressed, the guide display means 3 in the keyboard device rearranges all guides stored in the device 2 in the descending order of using frequency. Thereby even when an operating system is changed, a guide can be displayed without being influenced by the changed operating system.
