I'd assume that any standard flashcard app that doesn't use repetition spacing supports sequential, non-random queuing. Supermemo can do this in Drill Mode, without the spaced repetition.

I would like NON-RANDOM ie sequential flashcarding ability. I cant get mnemosyne to do this. Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. need help with this if possible..

I like simplicity, but in this case it looks like a bad close of Supermemo: if there is only three actions for the user, then there should be only three buttons! In the defense of the three values instead of five, I would say that I am dubious about Super Memo's self-evaluation. I would be curious to find a software based on multi choice questions and/or web2.0 input to have other forms of evaluation: self evaluation on a scale from one to five won't be the same from one user to the other...

Painfuly complex as it has been though, I continue using SuperMemo, perhaps this is just a geeky thing.

Prior to it, I only get a blank space. Hi,

Maybe you can try adding a space between the “=” and “z”

x^2+y^2= z^2

I tried it and it worked. Prior to it, I only get a blank space.

The "instructions" on the suggested page on the mnemosyne site are useless. i have the same problem as Dat Chu. The “instructions” on the suggested page on the mnemosyne site are useless.

I am in the process of trying out Mnemosyne myself. However I have some problems getting Miktex to work with Mnemonsyne. Do you have any recommendation on the steps to be able to write latex equation in Mnemosyne? Thanks for a rather details look into Mnemosyne vs Supermemo.
