Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for automatically dialing a telephone number from a character string consisting of this number, or of a subscriber name corresponding to this number, encountered in a document displayed on a computer screen. .
- Number dialer software which allows telephone communication to be established from a computer, for example when a user consults an electronic directory, the latter storing a list of subscriber names associated respectively with telephone numbers, stored in digital format. Just click on the area of the screen displaying the name of a subscriber, or his number, so that this number is sent, in a digital format, to a number dialer software module, which transforms each digit into signals of dialing issued on a telephone line connected to the computer.
- an electronic document for example a Word document made up of characters stored in a digital format, ie where each character is coded by a binary word.
- the document US 5,903,631 describes a process consisting in: - designate an area of the screen displaying a character string containing a number to be dialed, in a graphic format; and give the order to dial a corresponding telephone number;
- the object of the invention is to provide a method for automatically dialing a number from a character string displayed on a screen, in particular when it is a name, and that it is coded in a graphic format.
- the object of the invention is a method for automatically dialing a telephone number from a character string which is displayed on a computer screen, characterized in that it consists in:
- - provide the digits constituting this number, in a digital format, to a telephone number dialer software, and have it execute the dialing of this number; characterized in that, to determine a telephone number corresponding to the character string, if at least part of the character string consists of a name, it consists in searching for a telephone number corresponding to this name in a directory.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a first example of implementation of the method according to the invention.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a second example of implementation of the method according to the invention.
- the user positions a cursor 1 on the screen 2 by means of a mouse 3, in the screen area displaying the number to be dialed. Then it launches the automatic numbering, for example by pressing the SHIFT key 4 and by pressing simultaneously on the left button 5 of the mouse 3.
- the computer displays in a window 7 the number which it has recognized. The user checks that the number has been recognized and then validates it by pressing the ENTER key for example. In other examples, it starts dialing by pressing two predetermined keys simultaneously.
- the user pulls down a “Tools” menu, then clicks successively on “Character recognition”, and “By pointing” options in this menu. Then he positions the pointer on the displayed number, and finally he presses the left mouse button to start the automatic numbering.
- commands can be used to validate the entry of the telephone number, and start automatic dialing. It is possible, for example, to choose an option from a contextual menu whose appearance is triggered by clicking on any point of the screen with the right button 6 of the mouse.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a second mode of implementation which consists in capturing a rectangular area of the screen containing the character string.
- the user activates a software module for capturing a screen area by pressing the CTRL key, 8, and simultaneously pressing the left button 15 of the mouse 13, while he moves the mouse along a line segment which constitutes a diagonal of the rectangular area to be captured.
- the computer then displays in a window 1 7 the number it has recognized. The user checks that the number has been recognized and then validates it by pressing the ENTER 1 6 key for example.
- FIG. 3 represents the sequence of operations in an example of implementation of the method according to the invention.
- automatic numbering includes the following operations: - 20) Designate (by pointing or by capture) the area of the screen displaying the character string corresponding to the number to be dialed, and give the order to dial a corresponding telephone number.
- the number is displayed on the screen for verification by the user.
- the user validates the displayed number by pressing the ENTER key.
- the dialer then dials on the telephone line.
