Claim 12:
13. A mobile digital terminal (1) configured with a software program product for controlling an external device (6-8, 10) with wireless communication function (6a-8a, 10a), comprising the mobile digital terminal (1) being configured by,
a) an application that is executed on the mobile digital terminal (1), which sequentially outputs a temporally changing digital content by an output unit of the mobile digital terminal (1) that displays said content on a display (1a) of the terminal (1), said content contains, in addition to the output data, a set of embedded or linked control commands (<c1>, <c2>), which are sequentially executed by the mobile digital terminal (1) when sequentially displaying the content in accordance with a flow control of the mobile digital terminal (1), and
b) when at least one specific control command (<c1>, <c2>) from the set of control commands (<c1>, <c2>) is reached, the mobile digital terminal (1) is configured to wirelessly control the external device (6-8, 10) via a wireless communication module (1e) in order to implement a function of the external device (6-8, 10) in a substantially synchronous manner with the display of the content or a section of the content, the content comprising at least alphanumeric text (2a, 2a′), and the content being displayed as the alphanumeric text (2a, 2a′) as scrolling text (3, 3′) on a display (1a) of the terminal (1), said text (2a, 2a′) being generated from a file (2, 2′) that contains the control commands (<cl>, <c2>) in addition to the data to be displayed, and the scrolling text (3, 3′) is displayed horizontally and sequentially on the display (1a) of the terminal (1), wherein said function of the external device (6-8, 10) is commanded automatically by the mobile digital terminal (1) in synchronism with sequentially displaying the alphanumeric text (2a, 2a′) on the display (1a) of the terminal (1).
