Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate the control when the documents are stored together with the voice information by using a memory means which stores the position data that secures the correspondence between the documents and voices and storing the document and its corresponding voice information. CONSTITUTION:A CPU 10 performs the overall control of a document processor as well as various types of document processing including the KANA (Japanese syllabary)/KANJI (Chinese characters) conversion. A working RAM 18 contains a register INC that stores the number of unconverted characters. When the value of the register INC is equal to zero, a reproduction start signal is delivered to urge the production of reproduced voices for input of the next sentence. A correspondence table 19 stores the sentence addresses stored in a document memory 16 and the voice addresses corresponding to the documents stored in a recording medium in pairs. A counter 21 carries out a counting action according to the drive amount of a CMT. A register 22 stores the position data of the CMT. Thus both the documents and voices can be controlled with correspondence secured with each other and then easily delivered in a reproduction with high synchronism by storing the documents and voices synchronously with each other.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing the flow of the kana-kanji conversion process in the above embodiment.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the processing flow when the "play display" key is operated in the above embodiment.

(2) When a kanji-mixed sentence is manually entered in kana by operating the character keys of the action input section 11, it is controlled by the CPU Iθ.

The input kana characters are sequentially stored in the manual buffer 15, and are expanded into dots on a display memory (not shown) and displayed on the display section 13, and the number of characters input to the input buffer 15 at that time is counted as the number of unconverted characters. RA for work
It is stored in the unconverted character count register INC in M 1 B.

At the time of kana-kanji conversion, after manually inputting the kana character string to be inversely converted using the character keys of the input section 110, the "conversion" key on the doujinshi blade section 11 is operated. As a result, C.P.
The kana-kanji conversion process shown in FIG. 2 is started under the control of U 10, and its specific operation will be explained below.

First, by operating the "conversion" key ' provided on the input unit 11, the contents of the flag register F1 are checked in step S1 in FIG.

Here, the above flag register F! If the content of is NO# (that is, if it indicates that the "convert" key operation is performed while the kana character string to be converted has been input to the input function 15), in step S2. , stop signal (S
TO) Full output.

As a result, when the recording/playback device 20 is in the recording mode, its recording operation is temporarily interrupted.

Next, in step S3, one work RAM / /?
The contents of the number of unconverted characters register INC within are examined.

Here, the content of the unconverted character count register INC is “0”.
", but indicates that characters to be converted (unconverted characters) are stored (remaining) in the input buffer 15, in step S4, the manual buffer 1
A character to be converted is read from 5, and the dictionary 12 is searched based on that character.

When the corresponding kanji is found through the search process of the dictionary 12, the presence or absence of a homophone is determined in step S. If a homophone exists, the homophone is displayed in step S6.

Here, in step S7, the number keys and the "selection/execution" key of the input unit 11 are operated.

When one of the displayed homophones is selected, step S8
At this point, the selected kanji is registered in the document memory 16, and the contents of the document memory 16 are displayed on the display unit 1.
3. Furthermore, in this case, in step S9,
The contents of the unconverted character count register INC are decremented according to the number of converted characters in the input buffer 15,
You can return to Stellar fS3 and examine its contents.

Further, even if there is no homophone in step Ss, the same step S as above is performed.

The subsequent processing is executed.

In the above Stella fS3, the number of unconverted characters.

If the contents of the register INC are not "0" (that is, if there are unconverted characters remaining in the input buffer 15), the above stencil fS
The process from 4 onwards is repeatedly demonstrated, but the above register INC
When it is determined that the content of is "0", 1# is set in the flag register F1 in step SIG.

If the "convert" key is operated while this flag register F becomes °'1#, indicating that no character has been input after the conversion, the current working RAM is stored in step Sll. 1 Document address register TXA in B
The value of the counter 2 and the value of the counter 2 are written and registered as a pair of position data (TXAi, CNTi) in the storage area of the correspondence table 19 indicated by the pointer register l.

After registering the voice and text position data in the correspondence table 19, the Stella fS12 sends a recording start signal (P
RT) is output and the paused recording operation is restarted.

The inputting of a document by manual key operation of the input unit 11 and the recording of audio by the recording operation of the microphone (MIC) and the recording/reproducing unit 20 are performed sequentially, and each time the conversion process is performed, the position of one document and the audio is changed. Data (TXAn, CN
Tn) are registered in the correspondence table 19 in pairs.

The position data of the document and audio registered in the correspondence table I9 as described above is effectively used when outputting one document and audio synchronously, and is used for the operation of the "playback display" key at that time. The accompanying processing will be explained with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

Here, the process shown in FIG. 3 is executed by operating the "playback display" key after specifying with the cursor the character consisting of 1 displayed on the display unit xshK.

First, in step S21, a document address (TXA4, TXAi+1...) registered in the correspondence table 19 is searched based on the cursor address stored in the cursor register CUA in the 1 work RAM 1B.
(TXAi≦(CUA) <TXAi+1,)
The storage position of the document address TXA satisfying the requirement is searched, and the playback start position of the stored character string including the cursor designated character on the correspondence table 19 is detected.

Next, if the playback start position on the correspondence table 19 is detected, in step S22.

The above detected position data (TXAl, CNTl)
The voice position data (CNTi) paired with the position data (TXAl) of one of the documents is set in the t-register 22.

Then, in step SZS, the position data (CNTI) stored in the register 22 is compared with the count value of the counter 21 (CMT position data), and the counter 21
If the value of is larger than the value of the position data (CNTi), a return signal is output in step 835 to return the entire CMT. If the value of the counter 21 is smaller than the value of the position data (CNTi), a fast-forward signal is output in step s24 to fast-forward the CMT.

Then, in step S25, when it is detected that the coincidence detection circuit 23 outputs a coincidence signal indicating that the value of the counter 21 has reached the value of the register 22, a stop signal (STO) is output in step S26. 'i ratio output, stop playback operation.

Thereafter, in step S27, the document address T
Document memory 16 specified by XAl-TXAl-4-1
The document data stored in the storage area is read out and transferred to the first display memory 13B, and the document is displayed in reverse on the display ISA. On this occasion.

If the characters read from the document memory 16 exceed the display range (for example, one line, two digits) f of the display 13A, they are displayed in flowing characters in accordance with the playback speed.

Next, in step 5211, audio position data (CNTi+1) f: corresponding to the position data (TXA1+1) of the document registered in the correspondence table 19 is read out, and this position data (CNTi+1) is set in the k register 22. , in step 8211, a reproduction start signal (
PST).

As a result, the recording/reproducing device 20 reproduces the audio corresponding to the document displayed on the display 13A and outputs it through the speaker. At this time, the cursor specifies the corresponding character in synchronization with the reproduced audio.

Further, at this time, the document is transferred from the document memory to the display memory as follows.

That is, when the cursor is moved within the display range of one display 13A, there is no transfer from the document memory 16 to the display memory 13B, and only the display of the cursor 1 moves in response to the operation of the cursor keys. Next, when the cursor is moved beyond the display range of the display unit 13B, data is transferred from the one-document memory 16 to the display memo I713B,
The cursor keys will now fit within the display range. Furthermore, when you operate the cursor keys, the work RAMIB
The cursor address of the cursor register CUA in the cursor register CUA is updated.

-t, the value of the counter 21 is changed to the value of the register 22 (CN
When Ti+1) is reached, a match signal is output from the - number construction circuit 23, and this signal is input to the CPU 10 and also to the AND gate 26. On this occasion,
The flip 70 knob 25 has been set by the reproduction start signal (PST) output in step Sn, and therefore the AND gate 26 is opened and the gate 26 is opened.
A stop signal is output to the Yoshi recording/playback device 20, and
An interrupt signal (INT) is sent to CPU 1o.

When the CPU 10 receives the interrupt signal (INT) from the ANDf-) 26, it checks the contents of the flag register F2 in step Sho, and if it is 0'', the process goes to step 83.
Enters interrupt processing after 1. Here, first step S3
1, set flag register F2 to “1”,
Also, in Stella fS32, the value of pointer register 1 is updated (+1). Furthermore, in step S33, it is checked whether the value of the pointer register l has reached the pointer address of the last position data registered in the correspondence table 19, and if it has not reached, the interrupt processing is ended and the process returns to step S7. ``Starts the process after S27. Also, when the value of pointer register i reaches the pointer address of the final position data registered in the correspondence table 19, the content of the flag register F2 is returned to ``0'', and the audio and Ends the synchronous playback operation of the document.

Further, when the "stop playback" key of the input unit 11 is operated during the audio playback, the CPU 10 sends a stop signal (S
TO) is output, the same signal is input to the recording/playback device 2θ via the ordart 27, and the playback of the audio is stopped.

Through such synchronous storage and playback of documents and audio, input documents and audio can be managed in a state where they are associated with each other, and the saved documents and audio can be hardened and easily played back. , and can be output with high synchronization.

In the above-described embodiment, the storage location of the voice and document is stored at the time of starting input of the character string to be exchanged, but the present invention is not limited to this.
Each time a sentence (or phrase or character) is input, the storage position of the voice at that time is automatically determined and stored, and when converting a character string, the storage position of the sentence (or phrase or character) is identified and the two are associated. It may also be configured to store the information. Alternatively, data indicating the storage location of the document memory (or voice memory) may be stored in the voice memory (or document memory). Also, audio data and document data can be divided into sentences (or phrases, or characters).
The configuration may be such that the information is stored alternately.

Further, in the above embodiment, the voice input period is substantially synchronized with the input period of the unconverted character string and is the same period, but it may be made to be different. For example, before (or after, or after the completion of conversion) an input operation of an unconverted character string, a voice may be input in correspondence with this character string and stored in the voice storage means.

Further, in the above embodiment, CRT display control is used as an example of the reproduction output means, but it is also possible to print characters corresponding to the reproduced sound and make the reproduction speed correspond to the reproduced sound, for example. Further, the playback speed may be arbitrarily specified so that the document data is displayed according to the playback speed.
