NAME
       anki - flexible,	intelligent flashcard program

DESCRIPTION
       Anki  is	 a  program designed to	help you remember facts	(such as words
       and phrases in a	foreign	language) as easily, quickly  and  efficiently
       as  possible.   To  do this, it tracks how well you remember each fact,
       and uses	that information to optimally schedule review  times.  With  a
       minimal amount of effort, you can greatly increase the amount of	mater-
       ial you remember, making	study more productive, and more	fun.

       Anki is based on	a theory called	spaced repetition. In simple terms, it
       means  that  each time you review some material,	you should wait	longer
       than last time before reviewing it again. This maximizes	the time spent
       studying	difficult material and	minimizes  the	time  spent  reviewing
       things  you  already know. The concept is simple, but the vast majority
       of memory trainers and flashcard	programs out there  either  avoid  the
       concept	all  together,	or implement inflexible	and suboptimal methods
       that were originally designed for pen and paper.

OPTIONS
       -b ~/.anki Use ~/.anki instead of ~/Anki	as Anki's base folder

       -p ProfileName Load a specific profile

       -l <lang> Start the program in a	specific language (de=German,  en=Eng-
       lish, etc)
