• Explanation Study Emacs [[http://orgmode.org][Org Mode]] files with [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaced_repetition][spaced repetition]].

Most spaced repetition software (SRS), including [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-drill.html][org-drill.el]], drills the user on atomic facts divided into flashcards. The idea behind org-study.el is to embed flashcards directly into notes or study materials as unobtrusively as possible, so that passive and active recall can be part of the same study session, and flashcard creation is a natural part of note-taking.

Right now, only simple fill-in-the-blank questions with a single answer and multiple choice questions are supported.

The spaced repetition algorithm I use is based on the SRS [[http://ankisrs.net/][anki]].

To use, put this in your init file:

+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp

(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/org-study") (require 'org-study)

+END_SRC

• To do list * TODO BUG: [does/doesn't] TODO study stamp at a numbered list should hide the rest of the list TODO better cards types Rewrite the system for defining cards types to be more general and easy to understand TODO depend on org-learn.el There is already a spaced-repetition extension for org-mode, and I should borrow the algorithm from that instead of recreating it TODO store flashcard data better Flashcard scheduling data is stored inline like this:

+BEGIN_EXAMPLE

STUDY{[2015-07-22 Wed],130,130 }

+END_EXAMPLE

Although font-lock can collapse it into one character this is not ideal

Look at org-archive for undoable operations involving other files

And it looks like the current scheduling algorithm isn't quite right

TODO integrate with org-agenda TODO hints ** TODO work with org-toggle-time-stamp-overlays
