Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain easy retrieval of KANJI (Chinese character) having a desired number of strokes in case the KANJI with which the grasp of the accurate number of strokes is impossible is desired, by retrieving the KANJI having the number of strokes close to the input number of strokes just with the input of a standard number of strokes. CONSTITUTION:In a KANJI processing mode a numerical input key 5 is pushed to obtain a desired number of strokes and then a stroke number entry key 7 is pushed to display KANJI characters of '20' having the information on the relevant number of strokes on a display matter 2. Then a display character selection input key 3 corresponding to the desired KANJI is pushed for execution of the input processing. If no desired KANJI is included in the 20 characters displayed, the key 7 is pushed again for display of the next 20 characters. In such a way, every 20 characters are displayed automatically by a machine up to + or -3 strokes of the input number of strokes. then the KANJI having a desired number of strokes is retrieved. Thus, it is possible to retrieve easily the KANJI having a desired number of strokes just with the input of a standard number of strokes even with the KANJI with which the grasp of the accurate number of strokes is impossible or even in case the input number of strokes have errors.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Technical Field The present invention relates to a method for a kanji processing system, and particularly to a kanji processing device equipped with a stroke count input function.

Conventional technology: Conventionally, in kanji processing machines that do not have a kana-kanji conversion function, the method for inputting kanji is to input the on-yomi or kun-yomi of the desired kanji from a normal keyboard.
A method has been adopted in which several types of kanji corresponding to the pronunciations are displayed on a display and a desired kanji is selected from among them (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 54-61829.61830).

However, with this method, there is a problem in that the reading of a kanji whose reading is unknown cannot be displayed on the display body.

<Object of the Invention> The present invention was made in view of the above-mentioned fish, and in addition to the above-mentioned method or a method other than the above-mentioned method, by inputting the number of strokes, a kanji with the number of strokes is displayed on the display. To provide a kanji processing device having a function of displaying a kanji, selecting a displayed kanji, and then inputting a desired kanji to obtain a desired kanji, and at the same time displaying reading information, etc. of the kanji. It is something to do.

Furthermore, the present invention provides a kanji processing device that searches for kanji using the input number of strokes and then searches for kanji using the number of strokes in the vicinity of the input number of strokes.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a plan view of a kanji processing machine having an example of a stroke count input device according to the present invention, in which 1 is the main body of the device, 2 is a dot matrix display, 3 is a display character selection input key 14, a reading input key 15 is , usually a numerical value input key (by pressing the ENTER key at 7, it becomes a stroke number key), 6 is an arithmetic key, and 8 is a character enter key.

First, use the kanji/calculation switch key 9 to set the mode for kanji processing or calculation processing. In calculation processing mode, it functions as a normal calculator, and has a dot matrix display (in this example, the display uses a 16 x 300 dot liquid crystal element), so it can display calculation formulas and double display of calculation formulas and answers. etc. becomes possible.

By entering the kanji processing mode, enter the reading of the desired kanji using the 4 reading input key, and press the 8 enter key to display 20 kanji with that reading, then press the 3 display character selection key. By pressing , you can obtain the desired kanji. If there are 20 or more kanji characters for that reading, press the enter key to display the next 20 characters, so perform the same operation as before.

The above description is ancillary functions to the stroke number input device of this embodiment, and the description of the stroke number input device will be given below.

In the kanji processing mode, by pressing the desired number of strokes with the 5 stroke number key and pressing the 7 enter key, 20 kanji with that stroke number information will be displayed first, and the 3 below will be displayed. Input by pressing a character selection key. If the desired kanji is not displayed among the first 20 characters, by pressing the enter key again, the next 20 characters will be displayed. No matter how many times you press the button, the number of kanji you entered (in other words, the kanji desired by the key worker) will be displayed.
If the number of strokes is not displayed, that is, the key operator miscounted the number of strokes, or the key operator made a mistake, by pressing the enter key again, 20 kanji characters with the number of strokes added to the number of strokes will be displayed one by one. If the desired kanji is still not available, the kanji with the number of strokes subtracted by 1 from the number of strokes originally input is displayed. This is continued in sequence, but the machine automatically displays up to ±3 strokes of the number of strokes input.

In other words, if the kanji is not displayed in that range,
This is because the desired kanji may not exist in the memory element, or the key operator may have missed the displayed kanji. Note that when the desired kanji is obtained, reading information etc. can be displayed on the display by pressing the enter key 8.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the control method of the present invention.6 Since the present invention is a stroke number input method, only this part will be explained in the figure.

The MPU is an 8-bit microprocessor that controls, calculates, and manages input and output of this device. The KPROM is a ROM that stores 7-onto patterns of Kanji characters (including kana, numbers, etc.) and the number of strokes of each Kanji character.

BUFF is a buffer memory for displaying a character pattern selected from among the character patterns in KPROM on the display device DISP, and is an R memory that can store patterns for at least 20 characters.
It is AM. DISP1 is a display body. INKEY
is a key for selecting characters displayed on DISP. KEY is a key for inputting the number of strokes. YROM is a ROM that stores reading information.

f:ttJ Figures 3 and 4 show the Kanji 7 ont pattern memory KPROM and reading information memo IJY in Figure 2.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the state of a ROM.

In FIG. 3, the processing speed can be increased by providing, for each number of strokes, a storage address for the 7-ont patterns of all Kanji characters whose stroke number information includes that number of strokes.

Figure 4 shows that when data compression is applied to kanji 7 ont patterns using some method, stroke count information (5 bits) is incorporated into the compressed data, and the search for the stroke count is performed using vn5 after each kanji compression pattern.
It shall be done with bits. The method shown in Figure 14 requires that for each number of strokes, a conversion table (6KB in JIS level 1 kanji) contains the storage address code of the kanji 7 font pattern that uses the number of strokes as the number of strokes information. This is an effective method because there is no

In addition, the number of strokes input key (KEY) and display character selection key (IN
KEY)'s Ir! Science, Kanji 7 Onto Pattern Memory (K
Searching for desired characters from the PROM) and reading information storage memory (YROM), managing output to the display (DISP), etc. are performed by software processing by an 8-bit microprocessor (MPU).

In addition, in order to reduce the number of keys, the 3rd display character selection key is printed with only the number indicating the position, and the 1st
5 and 2 may be replaced by a stroke number input key of 5 as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 which are other embodiments.

<Effects> As explained above, according to the device of the present invention, by simply inputting a rough number of strokes, it is possible to find kanji that have a stroke count near the input stroke count in addition to the input stroke count, without inputting a new stroke count. Since it is searched, when you want to obtain a kanji whose stroke count cannot be accurately determined, or when there is an error in the input stroke count, the operation to display the kanji with the desired stroke count becomes easy.
