Abstract
In menu structure, information is separately displayed on a menu item-by-menu item basis. Therefore, the adoption of menu structure involves inconvenience. (For example, pieces of information under different menu items cannot be viewed at the same time.) A portable information communication terminal eliminates this inconvenience. Information is configured in list structure wherein items (A, . . . , A, B, . . . , B, B, B, C, . . . , C, D, . . . (A to D represent groups.)) are arranged in succession. List information (Bto C) which is within a predetermined range (the second precedent line through the fourth subsequent line) from a specific item Cof a predetermined serial number (top number) in a selected group (group C) is displayed. Since the top item in group C is the specific item, items corresponding to group B are also displayed. Thus, items corresponding to different groups (group B and group C) can be displayed at the same time.
