Append new items

This option allows to add new items to the database, and is invoked with Ctrl+A. You can add a lot of new items without ever memorizing them. However, if you wish to remember them, you have to commit them to memory by means of Learn, and repeat them regularly. You can freely alternate the process of appending items to your database and learning.

You can add a new item to the database by pressing Ctrl+A and proceeding along the following steps:

1. Input the question (use standard Windows editing commands).

2. Press Esc, Tab, PgDn, or click the Answer field to start editing the answer

3. Input the answer.

4. Press Esc once to input more items (alternatively, choose Add and next), or press Esc twice to quit Append (alternatively, choose Add and next and follow it with Exit or Alt+F4).

The following options are available in the Append window:
