Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0032997A2] In response to actuation of the erase key, the typewriter determines whether automatic erasing is possible i.e. whether the selected location of the memory contains an erasable character. If the selected memory location contains an erasable character, an AND gate (100), subjected to inputs identifying an erase key actuation and a character code from the memory decode, provides an output which causes the execution of an erase cycle. If the selected memory location does not contain an erasable character, the typewriter terminates the erase cycle with a backspace, and an AND gate (101) or an AND gate (102) causes the setting of a manual erase latch (112). Actuation of a character key as the next actuated key completes the manual erase, through AND gate (103). Actuation of a key other than a character key resets latch (112) through AND gates (104, 105, 106).
