Word Processer   One of "3 Large functions" of Multistation was a word processing.   When Multistation appeared, it name was the "Bunsyo Program".   This program was started by the system different from DOS.   Although this program repeated upgrade as it was, the "DOS Bunsyo Program"   which operates on DOS newly behind was added.   And it became a "DOS Bunsyo Program" to operate on PS/55 of MCA, and the   "Bunsyo Program" was lost.   There was also another word processor of another software house, such as   "Ichitaro" and "WordStar."   Bunsyo Program   DOS Bunsyo Program   Others Japanese Word Processer   Others language Word Processer   Bunsyo Program     It is the program of the word processor put on the market simultaneously with     the appearance of Multistation.     On DOS, this program did not operate, but when applying with a hard-disk, it     needed to be assigned to another partition.     Version       The version was from 1.0 to 5.4.     Memory       It was as highly efficient, and at least 384KB memory was required at the time       or version 1.0. Since the beginning term type standard memory was 256KB,  it       needed to extend. Depending on the function used by the version 4.0, it 512KB       memory was needed, and 640KB memory was needed in a version 5.0.     Dictionary / Font       There were an idiom dictionary / fonts of IBM basic character set and extended       character set as an option. The font had both 24 dots and 16 dots.       Otherwise, the extended dictionary and the font of 12 points (No. 4 printing type)        for using it by patent application etc. were options.     Document distribution program       It is a program for transmitting and receiving a document via a document       distribution program host system. When a 5.0 or more-version Bunsyo Program       was used, data, such as business graph and a figure, was able to be included.     File Conversion Utilities (PC-WP)       Bunsyo Program does not operate in DOS. This is a required program when       taking in the data on DOS.       From the intermediate version, bidirectional conversion was attained and       conversion of a document with DOS Bunsyo Program was also attained.       The conversion utility moved on DOS also appeared as an object for MCA       machines behind.     Keyboard       W1 type keyboard can be used now from a version 5.1.       This keyboard was premised on mainly using a word processor.       Arrangement is based on 1 and 2 types. The function of a word processor is       assigned to the function key. Page Top   DOS Bunsyo Program     The word processor put on the market in order to make it the system on DOS     is a "DOS Bunsyo Program."     The DOS Bunsyo Program for Multistation had I and II.     There is a version of exclusive use as an object for 5535 independently.     III is the version which operates by PS/55 of MCA.     Version       I is only a version 1.0. There is II to a version 6.0.       The object for 5535 has a version 1.0 and a version 6.0.       III corresponds also to DOS/V by the version 2 or 3.     Environment of operation       Although there is no publication about a memory, it is thought that 640KB is       probably required.       Although the drives are the two minimum diskette-drive, the Kanji Font Card       and the Extended Dictionary Card (for clause conversion) are needed in this       case.       In DOS, more than version K2.7 (it is more than K3.2 at the time of use of a       network) and the object for 5535 have become more than K3.3.     DOS Bunsyo / office support communication utility       It is a program for transmitting and receiving a document via a host system.       It is equivalent to the document distribution program of Bunsyo Program.
