[lojban-beginners] Re: Supermemo

[Naomi K <alien.juxtaposition@gmail.com>]

.a'inaisai...for scott's suggestion I downloaded 98 and attempted to
use it, but it's too complex for the likes of me...as for mike's
suggestion, yes I did rename the file, but no matter what name I give
it, it stubbornly refuses to work. Sigh...I might well stick to
Logflash. I hate those flashcard type programs anyway, they're so
tedious. 

Can't wait for lojbocradi's lessons, which I'm sure will totally revolutionise my jbocli ;-)

Okay; this is getting really hard bau la lojban. Supermemo 7 (the free version) was written for Windows 3.11. Back in those bad old days, filenames used to be of the form xxxxxxxx.xxx - where x is any character - that is to say, only 8 characters long with a 3-character extention (e.g. "winword.exe"). You need to rename big_list_supermemo_win.txt to something much shorter to get it working (e.g. "lojban.txt", or even just "lojban"), even if you're using Windows XP.

I have to apologise on behalf of all programmers worldwide for the absolute pain in the neck that computers can be.
