As soon as I read this, I wondered if someone had written some elisp to do it. Sure enough, org-drill[0] exists and implements spaced-repetition learning. In true emacs fashion, it actually implements three different algorithms which one can choose from! Just looking at it briefly, it appears to be pretty nice. 0: https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-drill.html https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-drill.html

While I'm a pretty great emacs fanatic myself, I think that this is one of the few cases where you'd be doing yourself a disservice by using the emacs alternative. Anki is extremely keyboard-friendly (more so than anything bar Emacs and vim), pretty extensible in a decent language (python), and unlike Emacs in this case, has a huge ecosystem behind it. The only thing missing is the possibility of using Emacs keybindings in text input fields (which is Qt's fault) — if that's important for you, you can use Emacs for input into Anki — google for it, as they're seem to be several options... FWIW I read somewhere that Anki started off as an Emacs mode, initially, though the only source I could find now (quickly), is this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10925971 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10925971 Edit: The Web archive helps (as always): http://web.archive.org/web/20091001153225/http://ichi2.net:80/flashcard/ http://web.archive.org/web/20091001153225/http://ichi2.net:8...
