JPS5814244A - Japanese language input device having display function of shrinked character - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease the storaged capacity, by preparing image data for standard characters and shrinked characters and reading out a character generator with the data. CONSTITUTION:In the display of the size of standard characters, a flip-flop 7 is reset, an encoder 8 makes bit arrangement as to a character code read out from a dictionary memory 6 and stored the code to a screen code buffer 10. While the display with shrinked characters is made, the flip-flop 7 is set. When two character codes are directly supplied from the dictionary memory 6 or an input character buffer 5, the encoder 8 makes bit arrangement and stored the code to the buffer 10. When a display control section 11 periodically reads out the buffer 10, the section 11 discriminates the size of the character, accesses a character generator 14 and outputs one or two characters with combination.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a Japanese input device having a reduced character display function, in particular, a Japanese input device having a function of displaying reduced characters, in particular, image data of standard characters having a standard size such as ordinary Kanji characters, and two characters such as alphanumeric characters. It is configured to prepare image data for reduced characters that can be treated as one standard character by arranging the minutes, and then separately image data for each reduced character.
The present invention relates to a Japanese input device which prepares data and allows a combination of a plurality of image data to be used at the time of reading.

In a Japanese input device, a word input in kana characters is converted into kanji by operating a conversion key, and a sentence containing kanji is input. In this case, character codes are processed within the device, but when displayed on a display or printed out using a printer,
Requires an intermediate generator to generate image data from the character food. On the other hand, as mentioned above (English/
When outputting numbers on a display etc.

From the viewpoint of character arrangement, it is preferable to display, for example, two alphanumeric characters within the size of one kanji character.

Such alphanumeric characters are referred to as reduced characters in this specification; Then, a zero-order problem arises.For example, for 36 alphanumeric characters, two characters are divided into 1.
If you try to prepare image data as one standard character.

Since a maximum of 36x36 characters are required, the capacity of the medium-sized Yarakuta generator increases enormously.

The purpose of the present invention is to solve this problem, and the Japanese input device of the present invention has a reduced character display function. a conversion processing unit for converting input kana characters; a display; a display control unit for controlling display on the display; and food information corresponding to the display on the display surface of the display. Equipped with screen hood and buffer.

The Japanese input device inputs Japanese text while converting the kana character string entered by key operations on the keyboard into kanji characters.
During conversion, on the Yarakuta Generator, prepare an IN semi-character area, a reduced character area, and a tube separately for each character, and in the reduced character specification mode, reduce characters in the character hood converted by the conversion processing section above. A plurality of characters are compressed and stored on the screen code buffer, and when read from the screen code buffer.

The character code read from the above-mentioned -face food buffer is decoded, the character generator is accessed multiple times in correspondence with the character code corresponding to the reduced character, and multiple image data of the reduced character are synthesized. , standard character 1
It is characterized in that it is supplied as characters to a printer or the above-mentioned display. This will be explained below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 9 shows the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention, and is shown in a form related to display on a display. Of course, it can be considered that similar processing is performed when outputting to a printer.

In the middle, l is the display and 2 is the keyboard.

3 is a keyboard control unit, and 4 is a conversion processing unit that converts input kana character strings into kanji.

5 is an input character buffer; 6 is a dictionary memory; 7 is a reduced character instruction flip foot; 8 is an encoder for encoding character codes corresponding to standard characters and reduced characters; 9 is an encoder for encoding character codes corresponding to standard characters and reduced characters, respectively; a cursor control unit; 10 is a screen hood buffer in which, for example, a character hood is stored in a form corresponding to the display screen of display l;
11 is a display control unit that periodically accesses the screen code buffer to display on the display l; 12 is a character code receiving register; and 13 is a depuder, which specifies that the character code is in standard literature. 14 is a character generator, and 15 is a line image buffer tube for determining whether the character corresponds to a reduced character or a reduced character.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the 0 character code is composed of, for example, 16 bits, and the character code corresponding to the standard character is as shown in the 0 diagram - area code bufftel IO (after setting #2 bit control logic rlJ, #7 bit and $9 bit or #
The corresponding standard character is specified using 7 bits of 14 bits.

Also, the character code corresponding to the reduced character is the same as Kasumimen 1-
As shown in the DO/9 output lO (#0 bit tube logic rl
J, and then set #l bit to #7 bit as 2.
Two reduced characters are specified by using bits #9 to #15 for a second reduced character.

The character generator 14 has image data for standard characters for each character, and image data for reduced characters for each character.

When outputting two reduced characters for display, etc., image data of each reduced character is sequentially output, and then an image of a size corresponding to one standard character is created by combining the two. - Be made to create data. For this reason, even when combining 0, for example, two alphanumeric characters,
It is sufficient to have reduced character image data for 36 characters.

In the car, the cursor is moved by key operations on the keyboard, and the cursor is positioned at a desired coordinate position. In this state, if you input, for example, "Torikiyo" using the character keys and then press the conversion key, the input character/
(The dictionary memory 6 is indexed based on the contents of the latte 5. That is, the kanji ``patent'' that matches ``to-)giyo'' in the reading section J is extracted. This "r patent" is of course a character code, and the character code is written via the encoder 8 to the address on the [1@=*-do/(TsftelO) corresponding to the position of the cursor. The role of encoder 8 will be described later.

The contents of the screen hood buffer 10 are periodically read out by the display control section 11 and displayed on the display 1. That is, sm='-de Barafchi lO
The character codes successively generated from the character code are converted into image data of the character through the intermediate generator 14. The image data is the row image /(, border 1

'), z y s-da 8 selects the character hoods that have been read 6 or 6 in the dictionary mailer 1l', for example, the character codes corresponding to ``toku'' and the character codes corresponding to ``r-gaku,'' as shown in the hood S, respectively. Organize the bits and store them in the screen two-parameter border 10.On the other hand, when displaying the reduced font size, the 1-illustration flip frame 7 is set.Then, from the dictionary menu v6 Alternatively, when two character codes corresponding to, for example, the character -su are directly supplied from the input character half-edge 5, the encoder 8 performs bit biasing to generate the #1 side code Store in.

When the display control section 11 periodically reads out the li screen de barafchi lO, the decoder 13 decodes the hood read out to the register 12 to determine whether it is a standard character or a reduced character. If it is a standard character p, the gate Gl is turned on and the character generator 14 is accessed. If it is a reduced character, first turn on the gate G2 to access the character generator 14, then turn on the gate G3 to access the character generator 14. For reduced characters, 2
The 29 image data (related to S and AV) accessed twice are combined on the one-line image/ζ buffer 15 as if they were image data of one standard character. The contents of row image buffer γ15 are then provided to display l.

As explained above, according to the present invention, it is no longer necessary for the character generator 14 to have image data in the form of a combination of two reduced characters 1 to the size of one standard character.
Saves storage capacity and tubes.

The above explanation uses the display display as an example, but it goes without saying that the same can be applied to printer output as well.
