Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Application of the Invention] The present invention relates to a Japanese sentence creation device suitable for use in kana-kanji conversion, such as a word processor or a so-called personal computer having the same function.

[Background of the invention]

Traditional word processors or personal computers with the same functionality use the [Hiragana] (hereinafter simply referred to as ``Kana'') or ``Katakana'' (hereinafter simply referred to as ``Kana'') key. By pressing the ``Kanji conversion'' key, the inputted character example is converted into a kanji character, and the kanji character is displayed on the display screen. Alternatively, set K to convert from Romaji to Kana characters,
After inputting Roman characters and converting them to kana characters, press the "Kanji conversion" key to display the kanji on the display screen.

The former has a "Kana" or "Kana" key and a "Kanji conversion" key, and the latter has a key that has a special function of converting Roman characters to Kana characters in addition to the keys used in the former. For this reason, conventional Japanese text creation devices require keys that are used only when inputting Japanese text by converting characters input from a character input device. Furthermore, it is generally recognized that inputting Japanese text requires pressing several keys that are used only for a single function, making key input complicated.

Note that Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-24452 can be cited as a reference for the technology of this food.

[Purpose of the invention]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a Japanese text creation device that can simplify the input operation procedure without requiring special input for each function, is easy to learn, and has good text creation efficiency.

[Summary of the invention]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is characterized in that, in a character input means having a large number of character input units assigned to different characters, a specific character input unit is assigned different characters depending on the operation thereof. It's about giving it meaning. That is, it is equipped with a determination means for determining whether characters from this specific character input unit have been inputted consecutively multiple times at intervals within a certain time, and an arbitrary character conversion means is provided based on the determination result of the determination means. 6. Features a selection execution means for selection execution.
16 [Embodiment of the Invention] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1(a) is a block diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 1(b) is a diagram showing the contents of a character code table. In the figure, 1 is a keyboard, 2 is a keyboard key input control unit, 8 is a character code, 4 is a key input code storage buffer, 5 is a character conversion unit, 6 is a key input character storage buffer, and 7 is an input code conversion information buffer. , 8
1 is a converted character storage buffer, 9 is a character conversion dictionary, 10 is a cursor control section, 11 is a screen display buffer, 12 is a character font, 18 is a screen display control section, and 14 is a display section.

In the case of this embodiment, the keyboard 1 is a standard typewriter such as a conventional word processor or an English typewriter that does not have keys with special meanings such as a "Kanji conversion" key, which are found in personal computers with the same function. key.

In addition, the keyboard 1 is provided with cursor control keys for moving the cursor forward, backward, upward, downward, and to the home position. The keyboard key input control section 2 identifies signals from the keyboard 1, obtains information such as pressed keys, and performs control corresponding to this information. For example, after obtaining a signal from the keyboard 1 to transfer the code of the key pressed on the keyboard 1, the code of the pressed key is received. and,
This received code is compared with the contents of the character code table 8, and it is checked whether a character key has been pressed. and transmits the character code to the character conversion unit 5. Also, it checks whether the space key has been pressed once or twice in a row on the keyboard 1, and stores that information in the key input code memory (tufa 4) and sends it to the character conversion section 5. Further, when a key for moving the cursor is pressed, that information is transmitted to the cursor control section 10.As mentioned above, the character code table 3 shows that the code received from the keyboard l by the keyboard key input control section 2 is a character. This is a table to check whether it is a code or not.

For example, if a key corresponding to the letter "A" is pressed and a code r41j (hexadecimal number) is received from the keyboard l, the key code and character code are converted as shown in Figure 1 (b). Search based on the received code in order from the beginning of character code number 3, which has a one-to-one correspondence,
Since the same code as this code is on table 3,
The key pressed on keyboard 1 is the character code, t7
Make sure that the letter is "A". Key code 1: Haba Sofa 4 is the keyboard key input control section 2
The obtained character code and whether the space key on the keyboard 1 was pressed continuously or only once within a certain period of time are stored, and the contents are transmitted to the character conversion section 5. The character conversion unit 5 stores the character code obtained via the keyboard key input control unit 2t- in the key input character storage buffer 6 [7], or converts the content of the conversion from the Roman alphabet by the character code obtained at the beginning of the character string. The input code is determined and stored in the input code conversion buffer 7, and whether the input is a simple space input or an input for kanji conversion is stored depending on the space input method. (Romaji for conversion?) Conversion 5-1. Romaji-kana conversion 5-2 and romaji-kanji conversion 5-3 are used, and each conversion is performed with reference to character conversion dictionary 49. Romaji-kana conversion 5-1 and Romaji-kana conversion 5-2 are performed every time a key is input, and Romaji-Kanji conversion is performed until the same key input that specifies Kanji conversion is made. Perform kanji conversion all at once when The conversion result is stored in the S' conversion character storage buffer 8, and in order to display the conversion result on the display unit 14, the converted content is moved through the screen display buffer 111C$.

Converted character storage buffer 8#-t, a buffer that stores characters converted using the character conversion dictionary @9 in a conversion mode in which the character code input from the keyboard l corresponds to the contents of the input code fl' information buffer 7. It is. The character conversion dictionary @9 is a dictionary for converting character codes input from the keyboard 1 into kana, kana, or kanji in the character conversion unit 5. In Japanese input, this dictionary 9 includes a conversion dictionary 9-1 for converting Roman characters into kana characters, a dictionary 9-2 for converting Roman characters into kana characters, and a dictionary 9-3 for converting Roman characters 1.1 into kanji. . The kernel control unit 10 controls the movement of the kernel after the display of a character entered on the keyboard 1 or when the length of the display changes as a result of displaying a converted character. Further, when a cursor control key for moving the cursor is input, the cursor is controlled to move to a position according to the content of the movement. Pictogram display buffer 1
1 is for storing characters converted by the character conversion section 5 in order to display them, and this content is displayed on the screen of the display section 4 by the screen display control section 13.

The character font storage section 12 stores the structure of characters to be displayed on the display section 14. The screen display control unit 13 retrieves a character font corresponding to the character code stored in the screen display buffer 11 from the character font storage unit 12 and sends this character font to the display unit 14. It also receives cursor position information from the cursor control section 10 and sends a signal to display the cursor on the display section 14. Display section 14
receives a screen display signal from the screen display section 13 and displays characters and kernels.

FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining the outline of Japanese input in this embodiment. This embodiment converts Roman character input into ``hiragana'', ``katakana'' and ``kanji'', and the discrimination is made based on the form of the first character input by the key, as shown in FIG.

That is, if the first character of the key input is an uppercase letter, it is converted to ``hiragana'', and if the first character of the key input is a lowercase letter, it is converted to ``katakana''. Furthermore, if the space key is input continuously within a certain period of time, it is treated as a space key input. Furthermore, if the space key is input only once within a certain period of time, the mode is set to ``Wataruji'' and ``Kanji'' conversion, and kanji conversion is performed until a similar input is made thereafter.

By doing this, it is possible to perform various conversions for Japanese input using general keys without using any special keys. For example, as shown in Figure 2, in the case of Romaji-kana conversion mode 15, Romaji input rKa
nji J is converted to "kanji". Then, in the bottom case of Romaji-kana conversion mode 16, Romaji input 144anjiJ is converted to "kanji". In the case of the Romaji/Kanji conversion mode 17, the Romaji input "Space Kanji Space" is converted to "Kanji" and the conversion result is displayed on the display unit 14. Additionally, if the space button is pressed twice within a certain period of time, it becomes a normal space input 18, and the display section 14
Display a space in .

Next, each processing function from key capture to conversion, which is the main part of the present invention, will be explained in detail using a flowchart.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an embodiment of the main routine. According to this embodiment, the main part of the processing is roughly divided into four processing means. The first processing means is keyboard input processing means INF. This stores the key code input from the keyboard 1 in the key input code storage buffer 4, and the details will be described later. The second processing means is a processing means C5O that sets the character code from the keyboard 1 in the key input character storage buffer 4, and is composed of steps H-@-F303, 304, 305, and 306. The third processing means is a key input character conversion mode setting process SCM for Japanese input. This determines the conversion form of the input key, and the details will be described later. The fourth processing means is input key-1 conversion processing means DI.
It is C. This is a processing means that converts input characters according to the conversion format specified by the third processing means SCM.

Each step in FIG. 3 will be explained below. Step 801
is an initial setting process in which the pointer of the key input character storage buffer 4 is set to the beginning position of the key input character storage buffer 4. Next, after the processing by the keyboard input processing means INF shown in step 302 is completed, the processing by the processing means C5O is executed. In step 304, this processing means C5O moves the process to step 307 in the case of the kanji conversion mode specified by key input of one space within a certain period of time, and in the case of input other than the kanji conversion mode designation, the process proceeds to step 307. In step 305, the input character code is stored in the storage buffer 4, and in the following step 306, the point of the key input character storage buffer 4 is stored.1. , ri are updated, and the input characters are stored one after another in the key input character storage buffer 4. Then, the key input character conversion mode setting processing means SCM shown in step 307,
Key input character conversion processing means DIC shown in step 308
After step 808, the process returns to step 302. In this way, after step 301, the first processing means IN
The series of processes from F to the fourth processing means DIC are repeated until the end key is determined in step 303, thereby achieving the intended purpose.

Hereinafter, the above-mentioned keyboard input processing means INF will be described.

The key input character conversion mode setting processing means SCM and the key input character conversion processing means DIG will be explained in detail.

FIG. 4 is a 70-chart showing the keyboard input processing means INF. The keyboard input processing means INF shown in this embodiment receives key inputs including conversion forms in Japanese input, and stores key codes. That is, in the case of the embodiment, if the space key is pressed once within a certain period of time,
The correspondence in character conversion described later will be different depending on whether the button is pressed once or twice in succession. If the space key is pressed twice, it is determined that the space key has been input and the character code corresponding to the space key is stored in the key input character code storage buffer 4, and if the space key is pressed twice in a row within a certain period of time. stores a character code other than a character code, such as "l", in the key input code storage buffer. Furthermore, for key inputs other than spaces, it is checked whether or not they are character inputs, and if they are characters, the character code corresponding to the key input code is stored in the key input code storage buffer 4.

With this, it is possible to memorize what key was input in what form. Also, if you use the cursor keys, move the cursor position.

Below, each step in FIG. 4 will be explained. First, in step 401, the key input code storage buffer 4, which stores codes corresponding to input keys, is initialized. This is the initial setting of the buffer that stores the character code mentioned above or the code that indicates that the space key has been pressed once within a certain period of time. This is the process of setting a value other than the representing code in this buffer.

The following step 402 waits for a key input from the keyboard l, and when a key is input, reads the code of the corresponding key. Then, it is determined whether the key code read in step 408 is a space code or not, and if so, the process moves to step 404, and if not, the process moves to step 41O. Step 404 is a waiting process for a certain period of time. This process is performed by the subroutine WT
This will be done via IM. Step 405 determines whether the space key has been input within a certain period of time, and if so, the process moves to step 406; if not, step 4
07 Move K processing. The determination in step 405 is made based on whether or not there has been a key input within the certain time period obtained in step 404, or based on the key code if there have been nine key inputs. Step 406 stores the space code in the key input code storage buffer 4, and the process moves to step 411. Step 407 is medium-
A code indicating that a space has been input once within a certain period of time is stored in the person code storage buffer 4. In step 408, it is determined whether or not a key was pressed within the fixed time obtained in step 404. If there was a key input, it is determined in step 409 whether the key code is a character code or an old one. And if this is a character code, step 41
Move processing to step 1. If the code is not a character code, the input is ignored and exits. Step 410 determines whether the input key code is a character code, and if so, the process moves to step 411.

If not, the process moves to step 414. Step 41
1 performs a process of displaying the characters corresponding to the input keys on the screen. Step 412 performs processing to advance the kernel position by one. Step 413 stores the input character code in the key input code storage buffer 4. Step 414 uses the key code to determine whether the input key is a cursor control key, and if so, moves the cursor to the position corresponding to the pressed cursor control key and scrolls.
1.1 The processing is moved to the first step 402. If the determination is negative, the process moves to step 402.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the predetermined time waiting processing means WTIM. This fixed time waiting processing means WT I
M is to memorize whether or not the space key is input again within a certain period of time after the space key is input once. In the case of this embodiment, whether or not there has been a key input within a certain period of time is checked by first setting an initial value in a counter and, if there is no key input, by sequentially decrementing the contents of the counter (t-K). If there is a key input before the content of this counter reaches '0''K, it is assumed that the key input was made within a certain period of time, and the key code input at that time is stored.

Below, each step in FIG. 5 will be explained. First, in step 501, a key input waiting counter is initialized. This is the process of setting the value required to wait for a certain amount of time for a key input, as described above. In the following step 502, a signal from the keyboard 1 is read,
It is determined whether a key is pressed on the keyboard 1. If a key is pressed, the key code is read from the keyboard 1 and stored in the buffer in step 506.

If not, the process moves to step 508. In step SL, the key input waiting counter determines whether or not the waiting for a key input has ended. If so, in step 505, a code indicating count over is stored in the buffer described above. In step 508, if no In this case, in step 7504, the key input wait counter is set to fi(-1)L, and the process moves to step 502.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the key input character conversion mode setting processing means SCM. The input key character conversion mode setting processing means SCM performs processing to determine how characters input by key input from the keyboard 1 are to be converted. In this embodiment, the key code storage buffer 4 is referred to, and if the space key is input once within -i time, it is determined whether this input is before or after the character to be converted. In the former case, the fact that the input character is a Kanji-converted character is memorized by turning on the Kanji-conversion flag. In the latter case, it is stored in the input character conversion information buffer 7 that the characters inputted between the former input and this input are to be converted into Kanji, and that this deformation is a Roman character-Kanji conversion. In addition, if there is a key input other than the above, the first character of the consecutively input characters is determined, and if this character is an uppercase Romaji character, it is determined that Romaji-Kana conversion has been specified. If the first character is a lowercase Roman character, it is stored in the input character conversion information buffer 7 that Romaji-kana conversion has been designated. As a result, "Romaji" in Japanese input
You can specify the conversion from ``hiragana'', ``katakana'', or ``kanji''.

Below, each step in FIG. 6 will be explained. First, in step 601, the key input code storage buffer 4 is referred to, and it is determined whether a space has been input once within a certain period of time. If so, the process moves to step 602, and if no, the process moves to step 606. Step 602 determines whether or not the mode is kanji conversion mode, and if so, the process moves to step 603 and sets a kanji conversion flag that instructs to convert characters input from the keyboard into kanji after setting the kanji conversion mode. Turn it ON. If not, the process moves to step 604, the above-mentioned kanji conversion flag is turned off, and in step 605, the input character conversion information buffer 7 stores that it is the roman-kanji conversion mode.

In step 606, it is determined whether or not the mode is kanji conversion mode, and if so, the process ends. If not, it is determined in step 607 whether or not it is the beginning of the input character, and if so, in step 608, the Romaji-kana conversion mode is stored in the input character conversion information buffer 7.

If not, the process moves to step 609, and it is determined whether the beginning of the input character is a lowercase Roman character. If so, in step 610, the input character conversion information buffer 7 is set to Romaji-kana conversion mode. remember something. If no, please proceed:・.

Finish the process.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the key input character conversion processing means DIC. The intermediate input character conversion processing means DIC converts the key input character 't- in the key input character storage buffer 7 according to the key input conversion mode, stores this in the converted character storage buffer 8, and displays the conversion result. Input character conversion information Sofa 7 has one of the following conversion modes: Romaji-kana conversion, Romaji-kana conversion, and Romaji-Kanji conversion, and this key input character conversion means DIC uses the information of this conversion mode, Key input character memory/ku sofa 6
The character conversion dictionary 9 is searched and conversion is performed using the character code within. Then, the converted characters obtained in this way are transferred to the converted character storage room (sofa) and displayed on the screen.

Below, each step in FIG. 7 will be explained. First, in step 701, it is determined whether or not it is Romaji-kana conversion, and if so, in step 710, the character to be converted is extracted from the key input character storage buffer 76, and the character conversion dictionary 90 is converted into Romaji-Kana conversion dictionary 9. -1 is used to convert into kana characters, the converted characters are stored in the converted character storage packer 8, and the process moves to step 705. If not, the process moves to step 702. In step 702, it is determined whether or not it is a romaji-kana conversion, and if so, in step 709, the character to be converted is extracted from the key input character storage buffer 6, and the character to be converted is extracted from the character conversion dictionary 9. The converted character is stored in the converted character storage buffer 8, and the process moves to step 705. If not, the process moves to step 703, and it is determined whether or not it is a Romanji/Kanji conversion. If so, in step 704, the character to be converted is extracted from the key input character storage buffer 6, converted to a kanji using the Roman character/kanji conversion dictionary 9-3 of the character conversion dictionary 9, and the converted character is stored) (sofa 8, and the process moves to step 705.If not, the process ends.In step 705, each dictionary 9-1
．． 9-2. Determine whether or not the conversion character has been registered in the table of 9-3, and if so, step 706
Processing is transferred to . If not, store the converted characters) (The process ends without displaying the characters in the sofa 8 on the screen. In step 706, the converted round characters are transferred from the transformed character storage buffer 8 to the screen display buffer 11. , this is displayed on the screen.Here, the display on the screen is to erase the characters before conversion that were displayed in the shunken simple, and then display the characters after conversion.Also, the position of the kernel is changed according to the conversion. The next character is displayed at the position after it was displayed.In step 707, it is determined whether the mode is kanji conversion mode or not, and if so, in step 708, the input character conversion information backup 7 used when converting the character is displayed. The mode setting in is cleared, and a new character conversion mode can be set by subsequent character input.If not, the process ends.

By doing the above, you can specify Romaji-kana conversion, Romaji-kana conversion, and Romaji-Kanji conversion in Japanese input without using special keys11
I can do it. In other words, it is possible to distinguish between the original space key input and the Romaji-Kanji conversion key by whether or not the space key is input continuously within a certain period of time, and by determining the first character of the Romaji input, it is possible to determine whether it is a hiragana conversion key or not. It is possible to distinguish between katakana and katakana conversions, simplify the key input procedure for Japanese input, and obtain an efficient Japanese writing system.

As mentioned above, in the example above, when using the space key and inputting it twice in a row within a certain period of time, it is treated as the original space key input, and when inputting only once, it is used as the key to specify kanji conversion. As mentioned above, the space key does not have to be this key in particular; it can be replaced with the space key if it is easy to use and can be determined in terms of processing.

FIG. 8 shows another embodiment of the present invention. This is done by switching to Japanese input mode while using normal input mode and converting it to Romaji and Kana.

It realizes romaji-kana conversion and romaji-kanji conversion. In other words, this Japanese supply camo-h"oa replacement" *, b+- is repeated 11 times within a certain period of time.
1. ．． 5 and press it to switch, and the space key is used as the key for this determination, similar to the above. The three conversion modes will be explained below. Romaji-kana conversion mode is set when the first alphabetic character after switching to Japanese input mode is a capital letter.1 For example, if [KanjiJ is entered, this mode will be used.
rcRJ (return) Converts key input to kana characters and returns to the original mode. Romaji-kana conversion mode is activated when the first alphabetic character after switching to Japanese salary input mode is a lowercase letter, for example, when vol. 1'-4anjiJ is input. Convert to characters and return to original mode. Romaji/Kanji conversion mode is activated when a space is entered once after Romaji input, for example, Kanj
Performs kanji conversion when i7 is input.

In this case, to return to normal input mode, l'-CRJ
Use the key. As a result, once the mode has been switched to the Japanese income card mode, kanji can be input continuously using the space key. For example, after switching to the Japanese input mode, if you input [Kan j i ■Henkan group], it becomes possible to input Japanese such as "Kanji conversion".

Figure 9 shows that in Figure 8, normal English input is changed to Japanese input by pressing the space key twice within a certain period of time, and whether the first character input is an uppercase or lowercase letter. Enter Romaji-Kana conversion mode, Romaji-Kana conversion mode, or press the space key once within a certain period of time.
This is a flowchart illustrating an embodiment in which the mode is changed to the Romanji-Kanji conversion mode for the input character string when the input character string is input twice, and the mode is switched to continue inputting Japanese until the "CR" key is input. Below, each step in FIG. 9 will be explained. Step 901 determines whether or not the current Japanese input mode is selected, and if so, the process moves to step 904. If not, it is determined in step 902 whether the currently input keys are consecutive within a certain period of time, and if so, input character conversion information is entered in step 903 in order to set the current mode to Japanese poetry input. Store Japanese input in buffer 7. If it is the same, process mt-end. In step 9 ( ) 4, it is determined whether the input character is an uppercase character after changing to Japanese input, and if so, the input character conversion information buffer 7 determines that the input character is to be converted into Romaji-kana. , and the process moves to step 908. If no, it is determined whether the characters input after changing to Japanese input are lowercase letters, and if so, the input character conversion information indicates that the input characters will be converted into Romaji-kana in step 907. The data is stored in buffer 7, and the process moves to step 908.

If not, the process moves to step 908 as well. Step 90
In step 8, it is determined whether or not to convert the input character into kanji by checking whether there is one space within a certain period of time, and if so, in step 909, a Roman character conversion indicating that the input character is to be converted into kanji is input. The character conversion information is stored in the character conversion information bag 77 and the process is terminated. If no in step 908, the process moves to step 910. In step 910, it is determined whether or not to end the Japanese input process.
It is determined whether or not there is a key input, and if so, the conversion mode of the input character conversion information buffer is cleared and the process ends to terminate Romaji-kana conversion, Romaji-kana conversion, and Romaji-Kanji conversion. do. If not, the process is also terminated.

In this way, using the space key and the "CR" key, for example, change from normal English input mode to Japanese input mode, perform Romaji-kana conversion, Romaji-kana conversion, or Romaji-Kanji conversion, and then return to the normal mode. Input is possible.

As described above, in the embodiment, a specific key is pressed once within a certain period of time.
An example has been described in which different meanings are given to each button when the button is pressed once or twice, but the number of times the button is pressed is arbitrary and may be differentiated depending on whether it is pressed once or multiple times. In addition, the number of times of suppression is divided into 2 times, 3 times, ..., n times, and each of these has a different meaning.
You may. In addition, in this case, the number of times of multiple presses may be determined so that all the multiple times are within a certain period of time, and the time interval from the previous suppression to the current suppression may be within a certain period of time. may be determined. In the present invention, all of these are recognized as positive for a certain period of time.

Note that these time intervals can be determined in advance through experiments or the like. This time interval may be fixed for the device, or may be set arbitrarily by the operator.

Further, in the embodiment, a keyboard is used as an example of a character input means, but it is not limited to a single character input key, but other means may be used as long as it has a similar function.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, the input operation procedure can be simplified without requiring any special input, and the Japanese sentence creation device is easy to use and has good writing efficiency. can be obtained.
