MULTI-DIRECTIONAL CURSOR MOTION ABSTRACT OF THE INVENTION Operator keystrokes are processed in a text processor system to move a cursor on a display screen in either a vertical or horizontal direction or both without limitation as to the location of text. keystroke data is processed under the control of programs stored in a random access memory. For a cursor motion, the random access memory of the system is structured to include a text storage buffer and a display control block both interconnected to an applications program and a display access method program. Data is stored in the text storage buffer in an unformatted configuration and the programs equate a contextual cursor address with a spatial cursor position. After running the display access method program in accordance with application program commands, a refresh buffer provides display signals to visually present by means of the display screen a cursor at an identified position in text.
