I use org-drill, the spaced-repetition tools for org-mode, http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-drill.html http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-drill.html Combined with org-capture templates is a great tool. Several commenters are saying that it does not make sense to remember the myriad commands you need to learn. I disagree. Just as you are much more efficient when your hands can execute the emacs chords and editing happens without conscious thought, programming is a much more enjoyable experience (and it is easier to stay in the flow) when you don't have to stop and look up your next move.

It never occurred to me to look for a spaced repetition tool in org-mode. It looks like a great tool to improve those corner cases you always have to look up. I agree that there are things you should just google, but it's worth memorizing some thing to speed up your coding, and it's really important to do that for coding interviews, both for the good impression and the speed up.
