Anki vs RevTK

#51
HI Misha and Resolve.
One issue with the import
I noticed that it does not import RTK3 kanji from RevTK site to anki. I assume that is an issue with anki possibly not having an RTK3 sample deck?


If we can get a sample deck for anki, what Misha's plug in handel the transfer? And where can we get the sample deck, from the owner of this site possibly?

If the kanji are included in the revtk export (I haven't looked at the format of the file), it would be possible for Misha's plugin to be trivially modified to add the new kanji if they weren't in the deck already. Alternatively if the rtk3 cards were imported into your deck, you could do it that way instead.

Making an rtk3 deck is as simple as finding a CSV file to import. The current Heisig deck was generated from a CSV file.

I am using version 0.9.8.1

I installed the plugin, but when importing, the screen freezes with this
message:

"Importing. Anki will freeze for a while.."

Is it because of the new anki version?

Is it because of the new anki version?
Is anything being printed on the console or in the error logs?

I haven't tested the plugin with the newer Anki (the latest version that worked was 0.9.7.9, I think).

Cheers,

I use this site for Heisig, Anki for sentences and other things.

Reasons why I use this site for kanji:
1. It's very simple and focused. It was made to learn kanji and nothing else, which makes it very streamlined and well designed. Everything is made the way it is for the user to learn kanji by Heisigs method.
2. The shared stories, though I try to make my own as often as possible.
3. The failed pile. This makes a huge difference for me. Anki just makes you bruteforce the information when you fail, you simply have to redo it more times. The failed pile on this site is more of a dangerous location. When a kanji goes there, you get scared and you focus hard to make it stick so it won't go there again. If a kanji hits the failed pile more than twice for me, I usually rework the whole story. The failed pile lets me know which kanji I really need to focus on.

The only thing I wish I could do on the site, is change keyword. I use google chrome so I can not use greasemonkey to change it, but it really needs to be changed in some places. (Especially remorse and repent.. god I hate those).

Thank you Misha,
I just installed the old version in another PC and it worked fine. Great plugin.

Alright. I'll look into why it's not working with the newest version.
