Abstract
Abstract A hypertext apparatus for managing hypertext composed of nodes holding information and of link information defining the relations between the nodes so as to display the information held by each of the nodes in accordance with the link information. The apparatus comprises: a node information management part for managing the nodes and for storing the information held by the nodes; a link information management part for putting into an order the link information defining the relations between the nodes; a link order manipulation part for manipulating the order of the link information; and a display control part for displaying the nodes successively in accordance with the order of the link information.
