ABSTRACT:
The screen of a display such as a liquid crystal display can be divided into an input data display region comprised of at least one line, in which characters selected by a user are displayed, and a software keyboard display region comprised of three lines, in which a software keyboard is displayed. A dot pattern showing a boundary between the input data display region and the software keyboard display region is also provided. A blank dot pattern is further provided between any two adjacent rows of keys or characters on the on-screen software keyboard so that the three rows of keys or characters on the on-screen software keyboard are spaced. The user can select a character displayed in the software keyboard display region by using a cursor key and an OK key.
