Hi DonJ, I am aware of the problem, however right now I do not have a clear view on how to do that consistently. The problem is that in PalmSupermemo you can put arbitrary meaning to the six fields. These meanings would have to map back to Mnemosyne somehow and that is where I am stuck.
However, I was also unaware of the csv import, so I will look that up. For now I think it would be possible to patch the import plugin such that the contents of card_field idx=1 becomes the question and all other card_field entries end up concatenated in the answer. Would that help?
