You should just be able to run: python getcards.py -o file_name_of_your_choice.txt flashcard_set_number For example, here's what it looks like (albeit on linux) me running it to get the 1000 most used spanish words. (http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/290174) > python getcards.py -o spanish.txt 290174 > dir spanish.txt spanish.txt Note, for some decks this script works *OK* but not perfect. Due to the way the cards are set up on flashcard exchange, they may not translate perfectly. This particular set did not, and required me to go in and "fix" some words (i.e., some words had questions but no answers, and other oddments.) Also, in particular, sets at flashcard exchange with pictures/jpegs/gifs/etc don't work right; the picture images themselves do not get downloaded. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mnemosyne-proj-users" group.
