Abstract
Disclosed is a processing apparatus, which makes it possible to make a cursor automatically move by employing a pointing device. The processing apparatus includes a control section and a processing section that implements processing under the controlling operations conducted by the control section. The control section is provided with: a display controlling function that controls the displaying operations on the screen; a processing implementation controlling function that implements the processing corresponding to the object designated by the cursor; a status change detecting function that detects a status change against which it is necessary to implement a processing operation; and an automatic cursor moving function that conducts the controlling operations so as to automatically move the cursor to the object corresponding to the processing operation being necessary for the status change concerned, or a processing implementation position display, at which the necessary processing operation should be implemented against the status change.
