Abstract
A consumer apparatus has an executing mode and a specifying mode. In the latter an array of formalized specifying proposals is displayed. The device has a cursor for stepping through the array for so selectively highlighting one of the array elements. Thereupon, for that actualized element a list of prestored proposals can be cycled through, while they are selectable displayed as collocated with the associated array element.
