Abstract
Abstract In a data processing system, data processing is carried out in accordance with data fed in from an input, the results of the data processing are displayed on a display, and the data processing being carried out is interrupted when it is necessary to display a help image. A help image memory and an associated help image revising facility are provided to store help image data which can be freely revised (added, corrected and/or deleted). An operator can revise the stored help image data and read necessary help images out of the memory to the display at any time.
