Problems solved by technology

[0003] The inventor found that in the process of text input, when it is necessary to input different emoticons, it is necessary to manually switch the input interface of the keyboard frequently to display the emoticon list interface, and to search for the desired symbol among a large number of emoticons. The text input process is not smooth, which reduces the input speed

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention discloses an input method and device, relates to the technical field of input methods, and solves the problems that in text inputting, when inputting an emoticon or other user-defined symbols, a user needs to switch an input interface to display a symbol list and search a required symbol in a large amount of symbols, and accordingly, a text inputting process is not smooth and the inputting speed is reduced. The input method comprises the steps that a character clicked by a user on a keyboard in a predetermined mode is acquired, the number of the character is N which is larger than or equal to 1; according to the character, specific strings with the first N digit to be the character are searched in a mapping relation table; a user-defined symbol list mapped by the specific strings with the first N digit to be the character is displayed; and a target symbol which is selected by the user to input is acquired from the user-defined symbol list and displayed on the input interface. The input method and the input device provided by the embodiment of the invention are mainly applied to input method treating processes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of input methods, in particular to an input method and device. Background technique [0002] In the existing handheld devices, when the user needs to input emoticons during text input, due to the limited size of the screen, the layout of the input interface of the keyboard is divided into letters, numbers, punctuation marks and other emoticons, etc., and the user cannot immediately input the desired emoji. symbols, you need to switch out the emoji list interface through the input method, and then search for all the symbols in the list, select the icon you want to input and insert it into the text. [0003] The inventor found that in the process of text input, when it is necessary to input different emoticons, it is necessary to manually switch the input interface of the keyboard frequently to display the emoticon list interface, and to search for the desired symbol among a large number of emoticons. As a re...
