Thu, 02 Nov 2006 17:48:50 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en The Flashcard project is unabandoned, sort of ;) What is that thing, which contains one or more decks, and also holds user information so that the user can resume learning at a later time? Words I Don’t Like workset: Not a real word.pocket: It simply seems silly to tell the user to ... http://gui.blogsome.com/2006/11/02/30/ Since userscripts.org has been painfully slow lately, I created a new permanent site at freewebs to download Ma.gnolia Condenser. Once userscripts.org is back up, I will update the userscripts.org directory to reflect the new location. Download Ma.gnolia Condenser     http://gui.blogsome.com/2006/05/10/fast-download-site-for-magnolia-condenser/ Wow. userscripts.org has been virtually inaccessible all day. Very frustrating since I had sent the link out to some people. I am in the process of setting up a new site where you can download ma.gnolia condenser.

The main features so far: More ma.gnolia bookmarks fit on a screen Lock icon turns red for private bookmarks http://gui.blogsome.com/2006/04/27/magnolia-condenser/ Two milestones were met today, things that had to be done even though they weren’t written on my 50+ item to-do list for this project. First, I organized my code finally.

Since it was written using the wxWidgets (formerly wxWindows) application framework, which is what I am using, I downloaded the source and executable for a closer look. Instead of Leitner sorting of cards presented, it has its own way of ... http://gui.blogsome.com/2005/10/02/13/ This post has been updated (finally). See last paragraph.
