In other words, when you are shown a Lojban word and asked for the English word, and then given the English word and asked for the Lojban word, does the program know that these are the same information? Does it link them together in any way so that they stay together in the schedule? -epkat lojban-beginners@chain.digitalkingdom.org wrote: >That sounds great I just want to direct your attention towards Rememorizer >which is also an open source, supermemo alike memorizer written with >superwaba.
