Abstract:
A method of displaying information is comprised of displaying a representation associated with certain information and displaying, proximate to the representation, an alphanumeric code assigned thereto. The code is comprised of one or more keystrokes needed to select the information associated with the representation. The information may be hierarchically arranged such that a plurality of representations is at the same level in the hierarchical arrangement. In that case, displaying a code may include displaying a code comprised of a common letter/number and a unique number/letter, respectively, proximate to the plurality of representations. Another aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a method of organizing information for a display wherein the information is represented in the display by a plurality of indicium. A code comprised of the input needed to select the information associated with its indicium is assigned. The assigned code is displayed proximate to the indicium representative of the information to which the code is associated. Other aspects of the present disclosure include computer readable media carrying instructions for carrying out or enabling the disclosed methods as well as computers and computer systems for carrying out or enabling the disclosed methods. Because of the rules governing abstracts, this abstract should not be used in construing the claims.
