ABSTRACT:
A guidance message display control system for displaying a guidance message on terminal equipment, such as multi-media communication terminals. The system maintains and updates a skill level which corresponds to the length of delay occuring before the display of the guidance message. The system awaits a choice selection by a users. If within a predetermined time delay the user has not input a valid selection, then the guidance message is displayed and the skill level is decreased. On the other hand, if a valid selection is made within the predetermined period, then the skill level is increased. Thus, guidance messages are displayed based upon user skill. That is, the messages appear for the unskilled user, but only appear as needed for the skilled user.
