Abstract: A word processing system is provided with printing means for printing on a character by character basis a data stream including merged graphic and alphanumeric data. The word processing system is provided with an interactive display for displaying by character generation a data stream representative of alphanumeric characters to be printed together with means for printing the characters on a document on a character by character basis. Operator interactive apparatus is provided whereby the operator can form a graphics data stream which is displayable on said display by character generation. This graphics data stream may then be integrated into the existing alphanumeric data stream, and the data in this integrated data stream may then be applied to the printing means whereby the alphanumeric characters and the graphic characters represented by this data stream are printed character by character to provide a document having the integrated alphanumeric and graphic information.

Abstract: An easy-to-use technique for specifying measurements of a document to be printed uses a pointing method, such as a cursor which is moved around a display screen by means of a pointing device having a select button. The pointing cursor is moved to each desired location in a predetermined sequence, and the select button is pressed. The values of the measurements so selected are calculated based on the relative position of the pointing cursor at the time the select button is pressed.

Abstract: The present method assists the operator in entering interactively selection criteria to be used in selecting records from the existing file. The method involves displaying to the operator the header portion of the existing file, along with a predetermined number of "qualifying rows" in response to the operator having identified to the system the task to be accomplished and the name and the location of the existing file in the system. The method further involves movement of the cursor vertically and horizontally to row and column positions for entering of the selection criteria. After entering criteria into the displayed rows, the next operation of the cursor down key while in the last row is interpreted as an instruction to the system to add an additional row so that another "logical OR" selection criteria can be added to the previous criteria.

Abstract: A technique is disclosed which facilitates the selection by a user of a graphic object on a display screen. Selection is by means of a pointing cursor which is moved about the display screen by means of a pointing device having a select button. When the pointing cursor is brought within a predetermined distance of a graphic object, the point on the graphic object closest to the pointing cursor is higlighted to show the user that that graphic object would be selected if the select button were pressed. If the user presses the select button when a point on a graphic object is highlighted, the entire graphic object is highlighted to indicate that it has been selected.

Abstract: Method of storing and recalling setups in a word processing system consisting in selecting a specified task to be performed on a file from the task menu, displaying the current frame for the task specified to the operator, requesting information about a previous file setup stored on a storage medium from the frame displayed, interrogating said stored information requested to determine positively or negatively whether the previous setup contained frames in the hierarchy of the current frame; and if the result is positive copying the stored information into frames in the hierarchy of the current frame to produce an updated setup of restored frames.

Abstract: The system stores and displays data in a table format (14), each portion of data being identified by a record and a field (20-36). When used in an entry edit mode, the data is entered or edited by an operator through a "keyboard". When used in a record selection mode, the system permits, by inputting information keystroke representing a comparison operator and data representing a field value and positioning the cursor within a preselected field (32) of the table format (14), to compare the data stored within the preselected field (32) of each record to the field value in the manner required by the comparator operator.
