Description

Document editing method using page management of word processor and computer system with its functions

The present invention forms a linear structure in which the relationship between symbols using page mapping (sequence: mapping) is sequentially connected by a pointer for managing the page of a word processor for a window, and the page is displayed through a task window representing the entire page information. It relates to a document editing method for moving a and a computer system having the same.

In general, the movement of a given page in a word processor is a swap file in which the user selects the contents of a document in the page as a block specifying a range to be edited and copies it to system memory or temporarily stores it. (swap file) or temporarily store the data on the clipboard to transfer the data, remove the page corresponding to the selected block and paste the copied page to the position of the page to be moved. Move through the cumbersome action of removing, or pasting and removing. This increases the use of system memory according to the size of the page content or the number of operations, which reduces the system's shared resources (memory, hard disk, etc.), which makes it difficult to use other applications. In addition, when the page contents are moved by copying and pasting even after the word processor is finished, the copied contents remain in the memory, which is inconvenient for efficient memory management.

1 to 2 show a schematic configuration and operation procedure of a computer system using a document editing method according to the prior art.

Referring to FIG. 2, in editing a document stored in the storage unit 18, a signal for page movement and a page to be moved are selected by a key input of the input unit 12 or a button click of a mouse in step S20. If it is determined, the process proceeds to step S21. In step S21, the control unit 14 receives these signals temporarily or in the storage unit 18 in the storage unit 11 by the operation unit 10 which controls the system to temporarily copy or temporarily store the contents of the selected page. Save it temporarily). Subsequently, the process proceeds to step S22 to determine whether the cursor (or point) has been moved to the position to be moved of the selected page by the input unit 12. If the cursor is moved to the position to be moved, the process proceeds to step S23. In step S23, in order to insert the contents of the page of the temporarily stored storage unit 11 into the position to be moved, the calculation unit 10 retrieves the contents stored in the storage unit 11 and transmits the contents to the control unit 14. The control unit 14 receives this and inserts it in the position to be moved. In order to proceed to step S24 to remove the page selected in step S20, the input unit 12 again sends a signal to the controller 14 to remove, and the controller 14 receives the signal to remove the operation unit again. Send to (10) to delete the page selected by the calculating section (10). This completes the page movement in step S25.

As described above, the conventional technology is difficult to use the system efficiently by using the memory or shared resources of the system several times, and inconveniences occur because the document is edited through a cumbersome procedure.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problem, and to move pages in a work window that can establish the relationship between pages with page mapping and linear structure for managing pages in various document editing, and grasp the entire page information of the document.

According to an aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, a page management method for applying a page mapping and linear structure of the word processor: a page mapping for the document being edited in the word processor for Windows to page mapping (mapping) Switching to symbols corresponding to the page in one-to-one correspondence; Applying a relationship between the symbols to a linear structure sequentially connected by a pointer; And displaying the same on a work window performed by multi-threading supported by the word processor for Windows.

According to another aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, a document editing method using a page management of the word processor and page management with a linear structure is provided by page mapping of each page of the document being edited by the word processor for Windows. A word processor for Windows that converts symbols one-to-one to a corresponding page and applies the relationships between the symbols in a linear structure sequentially connected by a pointer to display the entire symbols for the document as icons or folders. Selecting, in a window, a page shift menu of the word processor by an input unit having a pointing device having a plurality of buttons; Selecting a page to be moved by placing a cursor of a mouse on a symbol of a page to be moved using a pointing device in the work window and pressing a button of the mouse; Dragging the selected symbol to the position to be moved while pressing the button; And editing the document, including dropping the button of the mouse at the dragged position.

According to another aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, a document editing method using a page management of the word processor page mapping and the linear structure is applied by: page mapping each page of the document being edited by the word processor for Windows By converting the symbols into one-to-one corresponding symbols on the page, and applying the relationship between the symbols in a linear structure sequentially connected by pointers, the entire window information is displayed in the work window supported by the word processor for Windows, and the page unit A dialog box having associated input fields of; The document may be edited including inputting and executing contents necessary for moving a page through a dialog box of the work window.

According to another aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, in the page management of the word processor, a computer system that applies page mapping switching and linear structure, and edits documents using the same: a document being edited or being edited A storage unit for storing contents of the document; An input unit for generating a signal for page movement and selection by key input or mouse click in document editing; A control unit which receives a signal of an input unit, manages a page, and controls an overall operation of a word processor; A mapping processor which has symbols corresponding to the edited page and which corresponds to the symbols of the pages of the document by the controller; A page processor which has a predetermined pointer and thereby sequentially connects the symbols and stores their information; A computing unit (CPU) for processing the overall data of the system; And a display unit for displaying a work window having the symbol or the dialog box.

In document editing, page movement is equivalent to extracting one or more pages from the relationship between pages and inserting them between the desired page and the page. Therefore, it is necessary to set the relationship between the pages, which can easily manage the page by managing the content of the page separately and applying the order of the page or the relationship setting for the page in a linear structure.

Therefore, in order to facilitate the movement and exchange of the selected page in the document being created, it is a linear structure with pointers that correspond to each edited page with each symbol (e.g., icon or folder) and sequentially connect the relationships between them. define. Therefore, page movement through mapping and linear structure enables the movement and exchange of pages in a window showing the entire information of the pages. The above process is performed through a task window that shows the entire information of the pages by minimizing the use of system shared resources, which can be used even during document creation by multithreading supported by the program for Windows.

Multi-threading means that a thread, which is a smaller unit than a program, executes at the same time. In one program, various tasks can be performed at the same time. For example, while searching for letters in the Weed processor, at the same time printing and accepting the character input.

The page mapping is defined as a symbol for each page divided by a word processor or by user definition, and corresponds to one symbol for one page regardless of the contents of the page.

In addition, the linear structure indicates a relationship between a page and a page, and defines a predetermined pointer to the page, sets the mapped symbols, and forms them in a sequentially connected structure. It stores the contents of each page separately, and defines the relation of symbols corresponding to the pages by pointers having a linear structure. As a result, page movement is possible by moving the corresponding symbols by mapping, and the page order of the result seems to be automatically sorted by the user's feeling, but is actually arranged by the pointer according to the linear structure.

Therefore, the relationship between pages in which symbols by page mapping are applied in a linear structure corresponds to each page symbol and then sequentially connects them by a pointer.

Drag and drop of a mouse with 2 or 3 buttons corresponding to a pointing device, which is the input device of a typical computer system, is a single or continuous operation in a task window representing the entire information of pages. This means that a plurality of pages are selected by pressing a button of a mouse, and then dragging and dropping a cursor to a position corresponding to a page to be moved while pressing the button. This is a linear structure of page management, which automatically arranges the page arrangement internally and on the screen during page movement.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3 to 8.

Referring to FIG. 3, the novel computer system of the present invention includes a mapping processor 34 having symbols corresponding to pages of a document in a word processor, and a page processor 35 for controlling pages by controlling the symbols. And moving and exchanging pages in a work window in which the symbols formed by them are displayed on the display unit 36. And an input unit 32 as a keyboard or a mouse, a control unit 33 for controlling overall data of a word processor, a storage unit 37 for storing documents, a calculation unit (CPU: 30) and a storage unit 31, ; It comprises the display part 36. These will be described in detail with reference to the following drawings.

4 shows symbols by page mapping and relationships between these symbols according to an embodiment of the present invention. The mapping 42 corresponding to each page 40 to each symbol 44 and the mapped symbols 44 are formed in a linear structure 46 sequentially connected by a pointer 45. The pointer 45 defines the first page P ₁ as TOP and the last page Pn as BOTTOM to recognize pages of the entire document.

The flowchart shown in Fig. 5 shows a procedure for performing new page management of edited documents in a word processor of the computer system according to the present invention. This page management is performed by the controller 33 which controls the mapping processor 34 and the page processor 35, and these are stored in the storage 37.

Specifically, in operation S50, predetermined symbols are generated and stored in the mapping processor 34 for the page of the document being edited in the computer system. In step S52, in the document creation, the contents of the pages defined by the user or the word processor and the information related to the pages are stored in the storage unit 37, and then the procedure goes to step S54. Here, the stored symbols and the page information stored in the storage unit 37 correspond to the mapping processor 34 one-to-one. In step S56, the mapped symbols are sequentially connected to the page processor 35 by a predetermined pointer, and page management such as page movement, insertion, removal, and exchange is performed by these pointers. Subsequently, in step S58, the symbols by the mapping are applied by applying a linear structure to display them on the display unit 36 of the system, that is, as icons or folders of a work window representing overall information of pages, or a job including a dialog box. Display in a window. If a new page is generated from the document being edited in step S59, the process proceeds to step S50 to generate and store a symbol for the new page, and then repeats the steps S52 to S58.

FIG. 6 illustrates a method of moving a page using drag & drop of a mouse according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. These are performed in a work window which shows, in units of pages, the entire document being edited formed through the procedure of FIG. 5, for example, an icon or folder as a symbol corresponding to a page.

Referring to the drawing, when a page moving menu of a word processor is selected by a mouse having a plurality of buttons as the input unit 12 in step S60, the process proceeds to step S61 and a plurality of pages in which one or more pages are to be moved. Determine the authorization. If there is only one page to be moved, the flow advances to step S62 to determine whether the page to be moved is selected. When the page to be moved is selected by moving the cursor to the position of the page to be moved down and pressing the mouse button (down), the flow proceeds to step S64 where the button of the page to be moved is pressed while pressing the mouse button (for example, the commonly used left button). The cursor of the mouse is dragged to a position, and the position to be moved is selected by moving the cursor to the position to be moved in step S65. Proceeding to step S66, one page is moved by dropping a button at the position. If the page to be moved in step S61 is a plurality of consecutive pages, the flow advances to step S63. In step 63, it is determined whether a plurality of consecutive pages to be moved are selected by the method defined in the word processor. If it is selected, the process proceeds to step S64 and the selected pages are recognized as one page, and the steps S64 to S66 may be performed. For example, the selection of a plurality of consecutive pages to move using two buttons of the mouse, after selecting the page shift menu, positions the cursor of the mouse at the first page position of the plurality of consecutive pages to move. The two buttons of the mouse, then defined by the word pro processor, are pressed simultaneously to select the first page of a plurality of consecutive pages to be moved. Continue to hold down the two buttons and drag the cursor to the last page position of the plurality of pages to be moved, then release the right button to select the plurality of consecutive pages to move. Then, drag it to the page position to be moved while pressing the left button of the mouse and release the button to move a plurality of consecutive pages.

In addition, the exchange of pages may be repeated by repeating the above page movement. That is, after the page is moved by the steps S61 to S66, the page to be moved is repeatedly moved to all positions of the page to which the page of the place to be moved is moved. When the pages are moved and exchanged through the above steps S60 to S66, the icons have a linear structure by the pointer, so that the relationships between the pages are automatically arranged on the screen or internally in the word processor.

The work pane shown in the figure shows information of all pages, and each icon or folder in the work pane represents each page. They are also internally established by pointers, which run sequentially from left to right and top to bottom.

Referring to FIG. 7A, each icon or folder 71 in the task pane 70 for the whole page means a page, and when the left button of the mouse is pressed on an icon to be moved by the cursor 72 (button down) This is indicated by the selection icon 73. This selects the page to be moved (Page k).

Referring to FIG. 7B, when the selected icon 73 is dragged while dragging the cursor 72 while pressing the left button to a page i-1 position 74 to be moved, the selection icon 73 is moved. Follow location 74 to be.

FIG. 7C illustrates a mouse drop and a corresponding page automatic alignment in the operation of a page moving method using a drag & drop of a mouse in a task window, and is shown in FIG. 7B. When the button of the mouse is dropped, the selection icon 73 is placed at the position of the page (Page i-1) to be moved in FIG. 7B, and the previous icon (Page i-1) is moved one space to the right. do. In addition, the icons (Page i to Page k-1) on the right side of the previous icon are moved to the right by one space up to the position (Page k) where the previously selected icon was located. This means that the page is moved and thereby the pages are automatically sorted. In addition, symbols (letters or numbers) located at the bottom of each icon are displayed to show the movement process, and as a result, they are in the same order as predetermined symbols located at the bottom of each icon of FIG. 7A.
