Abstract: A system and method is provided for inserting into a display material copied to a clipboard. A user selects material to be copied the clipboard. The system selects and copies to the clipboard additional material. The user selects an insertion point for the user selected material, and the system displays to the user the user selected material and selective additional material. The system selected material is, in accordance with a more specific embodiment, that material which is needed to render the user selected material syntactically correct in the context of the insertion point.

Abstract: A portable phone is equipped with a position detector that detects the geographical position of the portable phone, and the function of the phone can be changed according to its geographical position. One or more "regions" may be defined by the user of the portable phone, and the ring parameters for each region may be set independently of the other regions. In this manner a phone in accordance with the preferred embodiments may ring with one tone at home, ring with a different tone at work, ring with a louder volume when on a job site, not ring at all when in church, and ring with a vibration when at the theatre. In addition, the preferred embodiments include a dialler that allows selecting a contact from a text list, and that dials a number that depends on the geographical position of the portable phone, or that dials a number and sends with the call the geographical position of the portable phone. The preferred embodiments further allow assigning a telephone number to a defined geographical region, and ringing the portable phone only when within the geographical region that corresponds to the phone number.

Abstract: The break points allow selective stopping of program execution, depending on whether a break point above a chosen rank has been encountered during execution. The ranking is associated with go to functions. This mechanism allows some or all of the break points set in debugging a program to be ignored. The debugger (127) runs in a programming environment (126).

Abstract: Ranked breakpoints are defined in a computer program that allow a debugger t o determine whether or not to halt execution of the computer program when a ranked breakpoint is encountered based on the rank of the breakpoint compared to a threshold rank. In a preferred embodiment, the threshold rank is the rank of a RunTo function, and the ranked breakpoints only halt execution of the computer program if their rank is higher than the threshold rank of the RunTo function. The present invention thus provides a mechanism for ignoring some or all breakpoints in a computer program when performing debugger functions, such as a RunTo function.

Abstract: An apparatus, program product, and method rely on user interaction in the ordering search results returned by a search engine. Each of a plurality of records i n a database is associated with a user feedback parameter that is used in ordering the recor ds identified in a result set generated in response to a search request. The user feedback parameter for a given record may be selectively updated in response to detecting multiple accesses thereto by a user and/or in response to detecting that the record is the most recently accesse d record in the result set. In addition, the user feedback parameter for a given record may be configured with a plurality of weights that are respectively associated with particular keywords, such that ordering of the records in a result set can utilize only those weights that are associated with keywords that match a particular search request. Furthermore, a search request data structure may be utilized to store a plurality of search request records, each including a search request identifier identifying a unique combination of keywords, and a result set identifier identifying a subset of a plurality of records in a database that match the unique combination of keywords. The search request data structure may be accessed in response to a search request to locate a search request record including a search request identifier that matches the keywords provided in the search request, with a result set generated that identifies the subset of records identified in the result set identifier in the located search request record.

Abstract: A method, computer system, program product is provided for enhancing interaction with a hypertext document rendered by a browser on a touch screen. A navigation button 281'',282'',283'' is displayed corresponding to each displayed link 210'',220'',230'' in response to a predetermined event, such as changing the displayed portion of a hypertext document or touching the screen, especially if outside of all displayed links. When a plurality of links are present, prioritization of navigation buttons displayed is contemplated, based on those closest to the area touched and on a maximum allowable number of navigation buttons.

Abstract: The present invention uses three separate methods to provide the user with sounds that help the user understand where a particular current position is relative to an "location of interest" (LOI) within the viewable object. First, the user is able to use sound marks to mark specific LOIs within viewable objects so that the user may return to those LOIs at a later time. Second, the user is provided with view regions which aurally indicate the LOI of frequently used portions of the viewable object. Lastly, the user is given an aural indication of the current position of the position identifier relative to the viewable object as a whole. This is called relational positioning. Each type of aural LOI indication can be presented to the user regardless of how the user is moving through the viewable object.
