flashcards in your terminal! This script was inspired by a basic script i saw in a youtube video by a user named nixcasts. I Like the Anki flashcard system and so im working to replicate it in a simple manner using plain text documents and a shell script to aid my ability to study with active recall and spaced repetition.

This script is an expanded version of the one featured in This nixcasts Video

This expanded version will create a flash directory in .local/share/ and create an example deck.csv file for you.

You can have as many decks in the flash directory as you want, and having directories and nested directories filled with .csv decks will all work with this system.

Dependencies

This script uses:

• fzf
• bat

Install these prior to running the script.

Installation

To utilize this script copy/move it to your ~/.local/bin/ folder or any place in your $PATH

Usage

The deck.csv file should have colon : seperated values in 4 columns

Organized like this:

category:question:answer:0

First Field: The category of the flashcard Second Field: The Question being asked Third Field: The Hidden Answer Fourth Field: The Score*
