Maybe that explains my lack of profiency in Lojban. Thanks for the vote of confidence %^) I think the old-fashioned-ness is it being a DOS program without all the features of newer interfaces (i.e Windows). So far as I know, no one has come up with, and proven, a better flash card algorithm than the one JCB came up. Nora and I have occasionally toyed with the idea of rewriting it as an exercise in learning one of the newer OOP languages. It hasn't worked its way up the priority list very far because we didn't know anyone cared. lojbab To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to lojban-list-request@lojban.org with the subject unsubscribe, or go to http://www.lojban.org/lsg2/, or if you're really stuck, send mail to secretary@lojban.org for help.
