CONVERSION CONTROL DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSOR, CHARACTER CONVERSION METHOD, PROGRAM AND DATA STRUCTURE FOR CHARACTER CONVERSION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a user to easily input characters with a plurality of pictographs.SOLUTION: Meta data are associated with each of pictographs. The meta data include, when the pictographs are combined and used, information showing character strings assigned to the combination, information showing the total number of pictographs configuring the combination, and information showing positions of the pictographs in the combination. In the example of a figure, when a user inputs such a character string that "a hamburger set" (or a portion of this) as an input character string, pictographs P2, P3 and P1 are displayed in this order as conversion candidates.
