Feature request: Show current deck

[vacekj]

First off, let me thank you for this awesome extension! I've been using it a lot and it has sure helped me do more reviews.

Now, on to the request: It would be great if the user could see the deck currently being reviewed. Maybe in a status bar on the top, along with remaining reviews?

Sure, I'll implement it right now. It'll be available as an option in the next release (which I will upload later today or tomorrow). Also, thanks for the praise. It is really cool to hear about people using something you've created.

Closing this issue as it has already been implemented. About showing the remaining reviews on top, I've tested several approaches, including leaving that as an option which could be enabled, and none of them were good enough to make it into the final extension. The reason for that is that the implementation of those counters in ankiuser.net is terrible:

• The server sends updated counters on each getCards request, so that means that if the interleavingTrigger you've set is n, the counters are only going to be updated every n cards. That is, users will see that their actions don't influence the counters as they are used to in anki and suddenly they'll see the numbers drop by n. That could be fixed by code but that would mean integrating anki logic into the extension.
• Every time there is a new request the counters are modified, so if people keep opening new tabs each time the numbers will be different, which is totally counter-intuitive.

Any way, if you still want to have these counters you only have to run locally the code that can be found on the branch deckStats
