Getting Started

  • Install cargo
    • Ensure ~/.cargo/bin is in the PATH environment variable.
  • Install remedy (cargo install remedy)
  • Make a workspace directory (mkdir ~/workspace && cd "$_")
  • Create a document (echo "• b89a01bc ·A·Hello· ·B·World·\!" > test.rem)
  • Create a deck from this document (remedy deck add test.rem)
  • Initialise a session with all decks (remedy session initialize)
  • Start learning the cards in this session (remedy session learn)

What's going on?

document

  • A document contains many rems - a syntax that can generate cards.
  • A rem begins with a bullet followed by an ID of eight hex characters, and contains some text that can optionally be closed - this is the text that you want to learn.
  • Closed text belongs to a group and is defined by ·<group>·<text>·.
    • The group may be specified as an ancestor's group by prefixing the group with multiple ^ characters.

session

  • Implements the simple yet effective SM2 Algorithm.
    • Assess your retention of the card after viewing the answer.
  • On quitting the program, the session is saved.
