Abstract

PURPOSE:To input a Japanese language with Katakana (square form of Japanese syllabary) mixed without a means using a Kana (Japanese syllabary) shift key by using an already generated document to generate a Katakana table. CONSTITUTION:If a full Katakana table is already generated by update of a Katakana dictionary and the learning function of the Katakana table, contents of a clause are all inputted with Hiragana (cursive form of Japanese syllabary) to retrieve the Katakana table (5-1). If they coincide with contents of the Katakana table, Katakana is outputted (5-2). If they do not coincide, a Kanji (Chinese character) dictionary is retrieved (5-3). If they coincide with contents of the Kanji dictionary, Kanji is outputted (5-4). If they do not coincide, Hiragana is outputted through the grammatical processing (5-5). Thus, the Japanese language with Katakana mixed is inputted without the means using the Kana shift key.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) In the input method of the Howard processor of the present invention, C.
Concerning the conversion method when inputting katakana seven characters.

(Prior technology) In Japanese word processors, Kanji conversion is done using Kanama 7.
For t, a general method is to input a heading in roji and output a sentence mixed with kanji and kana, and to input mayu and katakana, it is common to change the mode by pressing the kana shift key all the way down.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Ninth: With the conventional method, in technical texts where hiragana and katakana are often mixed, users often forget to press the kana shift key or forget to return to hiragana, which deteriorates input efficiency. But nine.

As a means to solve these problems, a method is known in which katakana is registered in a kanji dictionary, inputted in hiragana, and converted into kanji.

But dictionary capacity limitations and terminology? Due to the difficulty of identifying all the information, no products are available that can be used in actual work.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks and to provide a katakana conversion method in a word processor that allows full Japanese input including katakana without using the kana shift key.

(Elaborate means to solve all problems) In order to achieve all of the above objectives, the word processor of the present invention uses a katakana conversion method. In the katakana conversion method of a word processor, the katakana table is created by extracting the katakana part from the created document, and during document creation the katakana table is updated from the input katakana part, and when converting kanji, the katakana table 'zmKL, -do is created. It is configured with a conversion algorithm that outputs katakana in case all the following headings are detected.

(Actual Flow Side) The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the appearance of a word processor employing the Katakana conversion method according to the present invention.

All the characters inputted from the keyboard 2 are converted into Japanese characters, displayed on the CRT display 1, stored on the floppy disk, and then printed on the printer 3 to form a Japanese sentence "iI?". can be created.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the arrangement of each key on the keyboard.

In addition, Fig. 3 is a diagram showing an example of keystrokes, and Fig. 3 (a) shows the case where the conventional kana shift key is used. This is an example of a case where control is performed.

In Fig. 3(a), 38 touches were required to input the same sentence, but according to this method, the number of key touches can be reduced by the number of katakana words x 2, resulting in 34 touches.

Figure 4 shows katakana words used in existing documents.
It is a figure which shows the example of an operation when creating/updating the km calculation katakana table.

On screen 4-1, perform basic operation 1 [Show and select auxiliary functions (screen 4-2)], and select all katakana dictionary iFr.

In this embodiment, the katakana table is called a katakana dictionary so that when viewed from an operator, it can be understood in the same concept as a kanji dictionary.

When Katakana dictionary update is selected, the document on screen 4-3
Displays a viewing screen, allows the operator to select a document to be extracted, and creates/updates a katakana table.

If the document name "About Katakana Input" is specified and the Katakana Dictionary is changed to trt-go, the Katakana portion of the document is processed according to the control flow shown in FIG. 5, and the Katakana table shown in FIG. 6 is created.

Katakana extracted from the document is 1-byte data (JI
S06220 code system) is set in the °C buffer Kb, -ei is added to the length, and the in-memory table update routine is called.

The in-memory table update routine in Figure 5(C) checks whether the table is over or not (5-9), and if there is free space, it checks to see if the same content as the Kb has already been set (5-10). , if it has already been registered, exits without doing anything.

If it is not registered, please check whether the first three or more letters of Kb are registered. Compare Kb and the katakana table again (5-10, 5-12).

In this embodiment, for the word "Katakana mode" and the word A, "Katakana" has already been registered, and only "Mode" is newly registered. If the contents of Kb are unregistered, a separator is added to the katakana and inserted into the katakana table in ascending order.

The specified statement W't- is processed in the same way, and after the extraction and addition to the last row are completed, the table developed in the memory is written to the external storage device and the screen returns to the basic operation screen.

Next, operations during document creation will be explained with reference to FIG.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing all conversion processing and katakana table learning functions.

Updated katakana dictionary and learning function of katakana table have been enriched.If you have already created a katakana table, enter the entire content of one phrase in hiragana and search the katakana table.5-1), -4F How to output katakana 5
-2), If there is a discrepancy, please search the kanji dictionary 5-3),
If there is a match, output the kanji (5-4), and if there is a mismatch, output the hiragana via grammar processing (5-4).
-5).

If learning is unskilled, there is a possibility that unregistered katakana words will be input into the table, and will be converted to kanji or output as hiragana.

In this case, you will have to re-enter the information after pressing k (for corrections or conventional changes).

Fig. 5 (If the code is katakana when the key is input using bl, katakana F (flag) t is set. 5-6), and then it is set in katakana buffer Kb until data other than katakana is input (5 -7).

When a character other than katakana is input, the katakana table in the memory is updated by the subroutine shown in FIG.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above in detail, the present invention utilizes the created sentences ik and further learns them during input, thereby organizing katakana words into a compact table according to the user's purpose, 9 A smooth katakana conversion method that avoids the hassle of frequently switching between katakana and kana shifts when creating documents? Can be provided.
