jMemorize

I’ve created a wiki page that lists all keyboard shortcuts of jMemorize. You can find it here:

http://wiki.jmemorize.org/Keyboard_Shortcuts

While you’re at it you might as well check out the rest of the user manual. It doesn’t contain a lot of content right now, but if you would like to help us with that, just hit the edit link and contribute to the docs. Thanks!

Another day, another jMemorize release. This version fixes problems with exporting to PDF and RTF. If you’ve already downloaded jMemorize 1.2.1, I highly recommend you to upgrade. Get it now from the download page. Thanks for your feedback!

We’ve fixed the bug that prevented some users from saving their lessons. Ironically the bug was exactly caused by our effort to make lesson saving better. In previous versions when something went wrong while writing to the lesson file, the lesson could end up broken. Therefore jMemorize now uses a intermediate backup file to save lessons. You can get the fixed jMemorize 1.2.1 from the download page. Have fun.

jMemorize 1.2.0 features a new copy-rename-save mechanism that is supposed to make saving files safer. Unfortunately this mechanism seems to break on some Linux systems. We’re already working on a fix and jMemorize 1.2.1 will probably be available by tonight. Meanwhile you should make sure that you backup your lesson files before learning them with jMemorize 1.2.0.

Here goes another preview for jMemorize 1.2.0. I’ll focus on the new features of the enhanced edit card window in this post:

• You can finally change the category of a card, directly from inside the edit window.. and yes, even while being in a learn session.
• The card text now supports simple text formatting like bold, italic, underlined, superscript (vertically raised) and subscript (vertically lowered) text.
• The unhandy properties tab is replaced by a new collapsible header bar at the top of the edit window. In collapsed form you can check the current deck and expiration date with a quick glance. Expanded it shows you all the detailed information that you’re used to.
• Every card now also stores it’s modification date, which can be seen in the card header bar or be used as a column in the card table.

I hope you like the new features. We’re aiming for an release by the end of this month.
