Description coran.fisher@gmail.com 2007-02-10 23:19:20 UTC
I find this program to be superior to similar programs in portage like kvoctrain and kwordquiz in that it the Leitner system for managing the cards somewhat similar to the commercial windows program called stackz.  I find this method quite useful.
Also not that this program depends on qt4.

This is the overview:
Japanese Vocabulary is, not surprisingly, an application for studying Japanese vocabulary. It consists of a set of cards, each with 3 pieces of information on them. The 3 pieces of information are the kanji spelling, kana reading, and English (or other language) meaning. It uses the Leitner system for managing the cards, which means that you see the cards you know well less often than you see the ones that you don't know very well. This allows you to focus on learning those words which you are having trouble with. The kanji representation of a word (or the kana representation if there is no corresponding kanji for that word) is shown first, and then the user can choose to show the kana and meaning for the word if he/she wants to. The user then decides if he/she got the word right or not, and the card is either moved into a higher deck (where it will be seen less often) or a lower deck (where it will be seen more often.)



Reproducible: Always

An ebuild is now in Gentoo Sunrise:

and soon in the the reviewed overlay:

Thank you very much Tiziano Müller it works great for me!

Added ~amd64 in the ebuild (works fine on my amd64). Still struggling with sunrise-commit, but hopefully will manage to upload the ebuild in a few minutes.

Hello, everyone.

It seems that at least one ebuild related to this bug exists in the Sunrise overlay at the moment. However, I have to regretfully announce that after a long inactivity period the Sunrise project has been discontinued and the related overlay will be eventually removed. For this reason, I'd like to ask you to reevaluate the ebuilds and consider moving them. If you'd like to maintain a package from Sunrise in Gentoo, please take a look at our Proxy Maintainers [1] project.

Please make sure to take ebuilds from the unreviewed developer Sunrise repository [2] rather than the -reviewed one, since the latter has not been updated for over a year. While at it, please note that:

1. Adding a package to Gentoo requires declaring yourself as an active maintainer for it. All bugs regarding the package will be assigned to you, and you will be expected to maintain it.

2. Some packages may not be suitable for addition anymore. While there's no strong rules that would prevent you from adding a package, it may be a bad idea to add old-unmaintained packages that will shortly result in a large number of bugs reported with no solution. If that is the case, please close the bug as RESOLVED/OBSOLETE to make it easier to find packages worth adding.

3. Some of the bugs were already closed as WONTFIX/OBSOLETE/... while the relevant ebuild was kept in Sunrise. If you disagree with the original decision, you still can add the ebuild via proxy-maint.

4. Pleaes note that many of the Sunrise ebuilds are old and may be buggy. If you decide to move them, please make sure to update/clean them up. The proxy-maint team will also review your ebuilds, therefore making sure they land in Gentoo in good quality.

Once again, thank you for your contribution. We hope that you will still want to contribute to Gentoo, through proxy-maint or otherwise.
