Abstract
In a display device in a character processing machine, which machine operates to provide text in the form of successive lines of characters, with the length of each such line being within a predetermined range defined by a margin zone at the right-hand end of each line, the machine including an input keyboard for the input of character representations and a data memory connected for storing such representations, and the display device being connected to receive such representations from the memory and to display at least the end portion of a line of characters, with each character appearing, in the order of its input to the keyboard, at an entry location of the display and then shifting to the left in the display upon delivery of each subsequent character to the display, the display device is arranged to present a plurality of character display locations equal in number, and corresponding in position, to the spaces of the margin zone at the end of each line of characters, and the machine is constructed for causing margin zone markers to be displayed in the display device at the character display locations.
