摘要:
A line printer attachment (100) for converting a display screen terminal to a line printer. The last or extra line of the display is used as the line print buffer. An initiate print signal is generated upon detecting that the last or extra line is to be scanned. The initiate print signal is used to blank or inhibit the serial video data from the display screen (40) and to enable the printer (300). The serial video data is constantly sent to the printer attachment but is ignored until the printer is enabled. With the printer enabled, printing takes place using the line print buffer data which has been serialized as serial video data. The print buffer data remains unchanged during the entire printing of the line where the printing is done in series of horizontal lines to complete the printing of a iine. At the end of each horizontal line of print a vertical screen retrace occurs and the display screen is swept where again the last or extra line is detected and another initiate print signal is generated. The next horizontal line of the series of horizontal lines for completing a line of print is printed and the operation repeats until an entire line of printing is completed.
摘要:
A method and system for facilitating language translation of text fields within an interactive software application. A control parameter is associated with each text field within an interactive software application prior to translation and utilized to automatically extract each text field for translation and to reinsert a translated text field thereafter. In certain interactive software applications which utilize fixed template user-interface structures, such as dialog boxes or menu templates, the architecture will not permit captions or menu pulldown controls to be identified within the template. In such applications, an additional artificial control parameter is included within the template which contains an identifier of the text field for the caption or menu pulldown control. Thereafter, the control parameters may be utilized to automatically extract text fields for translation. An attempted automatic extraction of text fields for translation in an application, which includes dialog boxes or menu templates, will result in an error message in the absence of the required artificial control parameter.

摘要:
Two different data-processing systems (110, 150) are interconnected into a composite system by a shared memory (200) in the address space of each, and by a virtual channel which generates interrupts so that each system can control the other. Each system can execute standalone programs. In addition, one of them acts as an emulated terminal for the other, and also as a system console for the other.
