In fact, even now the user is never forced to use HTML :-). The most common use for HTML would be fonts, background colours, etc, and 2.0 has a dialog for users to set these without having to use HTML. > * Subcategories would be useful, both for learning and for editing the > deck.

Since in 2.0 the window does not autoresize anymore, this is no longer an issue. > * Fewer grades would be wonderful.

Sorry, the number of grades is here to stay. I'm pretty sure that if I changed that, long-time users of Mnemosyne would be in uproar :-) > * Integrated support for audio recording would be nice. Perhaps later. > * When you edit a card, there should be an option to reset the score. I don't think it's a good idea to give the average user the power to abuse the system in this way, but this could be implemented in a plugin. > For example, in a memory peg system, you might decide to change the > word associated to a two digit number; afterwards, you don't want the > program to assume you still know this card. I would create a new card then, because in essence, that's what you're doing there.
