Anki `{{hint:field}}` and other things #112

Closed badlydrawnrob closed 7 months ago

badlydrawnrob commented 7 months ago

{{c1:cloze deletion::with a hint}} is probably enough. Might not be a good idea to pollute the cards with optional fields that only have a small use case or usefulness.

It could also be that having the need for a hint means the card is poorly worded or requires editing to make the question/answer clearer.

Could be a nice addition, but would also mean a little more cognitive overhead. Marking as "won't do" for now.

[^1]: With the caveat that ideally Anki shouldn't rely on anything other than the default features. Some things like advanced search plugins could be useful but Anki plugins break, and could make changes to the notes that might break too.

Tentatively closing this issue. If there's any really cool stuff that could be integrated into a different card I'll keep my eye open.
