1. A method of communicating changes made to text formed from lines of characters received from a remote source as electrical signals by an electronic processor to said remote source whereby said processor includes means for storing text, means for receiving, modifying and transmitting text, and a device for inputting information, each character being represented within the processor and the source as a coded number, comprising the steps of: (a) generating by said processor and storing in said storage means a respective checking number corresponding to each one of m lines of characters received from the source; (b) modifying by said processor the received text to form a body of n lines by selective addition, modification, or deletion of lines and characters based upon the information input through the inputting device, the text as modified being stored in said storage means; (c) generating by said processor a checking number for each line of modified text in the manner of step (a); and (d) associatively comparing by said processor the checking numbers of consecutive counterpart lines of the modified text with those of the received text and transmitting by said processor back to the remote source the entire text of only those lines which have been modified as denoted by said lines having checking numbers mismatching those of the received text thereby to minimize communication of changes made to the text between the remote source and processor.
