Abstract: A dot matrix type liquid crystal display panel is used with a central processor unit for displaying a message longer than the capacity of the display panel. The beginning portion of the message of a length equal to the capacity of the display panel is first displayed at one time and held on the display panel for a limited length of time facilitating the viewers' recognition of the meaning of the message. When the repeated display of the message is desired, the display state where the end of the message is in alignment with the last digit position of the display panel is held for a given length of time. The first and final holdings of the message results in enhancing legibility of the display contents on the panel.

Abstract: There is disclosed an information display system for displaying information. Information such as an English sentence "May I ask you to post this letter?" is first stored word by word in a first memory means. "May I ask you to post" is fetched from the first memory means and loaded into a second memory means for displaying the same on a display panel. After a predetermined period of time has gone on, the display is shifted by the number of characters in the next succeeding word to be displayed, i.e., four characters in "this" to establish a length of blank digits necessary for displaying "this". Subsequent to the shift operation the blank digits of a display panel is filled with "this". The process continues on a word for word basis until the complete sentence has been displayed.
