PURPOSE:To obtain a character processor which can perform the emergency processing of characters in case a fault arises with execution of a program that controls all prescribed character processings, by using a character processing program which controls a part of the prescribed character processing. CONSTITUTION:A memory means is provided to store a character processing program which controls a part of the prescribed character processing. For instance, a control part 1 decides whether a floppy disk drive 7 is in a readable state based on a program of an ROM2 after the power supply of this device is applied. If the drive 7 is not in the readable state, a prescribed display is carried out on a CRT display device 9. Then a key on a keyboard 5 is depressed in response to the 2nd character processing program which controls only the partial character processing of an ROM3. Thus the corresponding characters are delivered to a printer 11. If the drive 7 is in the readable state, the prescribed character processing is carried out by the character processing program read out of a floppy disk. |
