Information display apparatus and computer-readable storage medium

摘要

A information display apparatus includes a content storage module, a controller, a specification module, and a marker information storage module. The controller controls a text to be displayed. The specification module specifies, based on a user's operation, a character string, as a marker display character string in the displayed text. The marker information storage module stores position information of the marker display character string within a storage region of the content storage module, and stores a stored time where the position information is stored as being related to the position information. The controller allows the text in an identifiable manner based on the position information, wherein a mode of the identifiable display is differed in accordance with time elapsed since the stored time for the marker display character string.

主权项

1. An information display apparatus comprising:
a display device; a content storage module that stores a content comprising one or more pieces of item information, each piece of item information comprising an item and a text associated with the item; a text display controller that controls, based on a user's operation, the display device to display a certain text associated with a certain item in the content stored in the content storage module; a character string specification module that specifies, based on a user's operation, a character string, as a marker display character string, included in the certain text displayed on the display device; a marker information storage module that stores position information of the marker display character string within a storage region of the content storage module, and stores a stored time where the position information is stored as being related to the position information; a marker display controller that controls the display device to display the marker display character string in a specified marker color which a user specifies based on the position information of the marker display character string stored in the marker information storage module, wherein, by the marker display controller, the marker color of the marker display character string is displayed in a light color in accordance with time elapsed since the stored time for the marker display character string; and a hidden-display controller that controls the display device to display the marker display character string as a latent image, when the time elapsed since the stored time for the marker display character string is equal to or greater than a given period of time.
