The Tools submenu on the main menu bar
provides the following options:
- Options
- open a
tabbed dialog box with options such as default interface font, default forgetting index,
path to files on CD-ROM, translation language, etc.
- Workload - open the daily and the monthly
calendar of repetitions
- Mercy - open a
dialog box that makes it possible to reschedule repetitions (e.g. before or after a
holiday break)
- Tasklist
- open a
tasklist manager to sort or edit the current tasklist
- Reading list - open a
tasklist manager to sort or edit the current reading
lists
- Plan - open a schedule manager that will
help you plan your time by adjusting proportions of time you spend on
individual activities
- Statistics
- Statistics
-
open a window with the main statistics of the learning process
- Element statistics
-
open a window with statistics related to the current element. This window displays
repetition statistics immediately after the repetition
- Analysis
- open
a dialog box with various statistics related to the learning process and Algorithm SM-8
- Simulation - open a dialog box that makes
it possible to simulate the course of learning over many years using real data collected
during repetitions (see: Theoretical
aspects of SuperMemo). Please note that for a low value of the
forgetting index, the simulation procedure maybe inaccurate (see: FAQ)
- Report - generate a text file with
statistics displayed in the statistics window
- File statistics - compute the size of all
files in the currently opened collection (including secondary
storage)
- Plug-In - call statistics procedure defined
by a plug-in algorithm (only if external plug-in has
been installed and if it implements the statistics procedure)
- Randomize - randomize pending queue or final drill
queue
- Random test - run random repetitions on
various subsets of the current collection
(random repetitions do not count in the learning process). The following
tests can be found on the random test submenu: All (Alt+F11,
all elements), Pending, Memorized, Dismissed, Topics, Items, Filter (use
element filter and run a random test on filtered subset), Leeches (random
test on difficult elements), Subset, Node (random
test on the currently selected branch in the contents
window)
- Random review - randomly review elements in
the current collection
