  • Patent number: 6668355
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a text editing system with a line end line feed function and an indentation function. In particular, a line end position Pg is stored in advance in a line end position storage unit 1, a line feed code in text data are detected by a line feed code detection unit 2 at the time of a text editing process after a character is inserted in or deleted from text data written in a subsequent file 4, shifts the position of the line feed code to the line end position Pg if the position of the line feed code does not match the line end position Pg, and the end of a line in a document is set to the line end position Pg. If there is a prescribed number of blank codes at the head of a line, at the time of a text editing process after insertion or deletion, a body of text can be edited in such a way that there are prescribed blanks that are always located at the head of the line by shifting blank codes.

  • Patent number: 5631643
    Abstract: This invention provides a key-code outputting apparatus for a data processor of the type wherein two or more kinds of characters are assigned to each key of a keyboard connected to the data processor, and different kinds of characters can be inputted from one key by using a character input mode or by using conjointly a function key and a shift key. The key-code outputting apparatus includes a memory for managing a correspondence for each character input mode so that a key-code generated by a key address of the same character inputted from a keyboard of a different kind becomes the same as a key-code generated by the key address inputted from a keyboard having a key arrangement assumed by a data processing program.
