Re: [Memaid-devel] Announcing the Mnemosyne Project

[Peter B. <Pet...@ug...>]

Glad you like it!

Thinking about it some more, I'm personally not convinced that is the best=
=20
approach to the problem. When memorising more than 1 item, I need to review=
=20
it more than once before I know it, and if the queue contains 1000 items, i=
t=20
will take too long before that item shows up again.

Therefore, I will write a small utility to split up a big XML file in small=
=20
'lessons' containing e.g. 25 items each. That way, I can import one lesson =
at=20
the time.

The tool should be in the next release.

(PS: please send discussion on Mnemosyne to its own mailing lists)
