1.  For Windows installation, do not require Windows administrative
privilege to install the software.  It doesn't seem to be necessary to have
the privilege as my workaround is just to copy the program directory from a
flash drive onto the target computer's C drive.

I haven't explicitly enforced anything, I just rely on the defaults of the installer. If during the installer you set the destination direction to a flash drive, do you also need admin permission?

2.  In the statistics, to be able to show a log of date and number of cards
viewed within that day (by date computer clock).  It wouldn't need to be a
log forever for my needs; perhaps just show the most recent ten days that
had any activity.  My students have to use Mnemosyne on their own "on the
honor system" some days.  When I talk to them the next day, they say "Oh I
did it yesterday".  I have no way to verify this, if the student has
already used the software on the current day and worked the scheduled cards
down to zero.

This is not implemented at the moment, but if on Friday the counter is zero, it means that they also did the scheduled cards for Thursday, Wednesday, etc... They could have done them all on Friday, though.

3.  Are there any command line options under Windows to, say, import new
cards?   With some students, I don't go to their house.  So, to import new
cards is kind of big mess.  If I had command line options to do things such
as import cards and point to a mnemosyne card file for the input;
activate/deactivate cards by tags (like a list of tags);  and maybe delete
all cards with a particular tag.... then I could setup Windows .BAT files
for them just to execute by themselves at their home.

Command line options are not flexible enough for that, but you can script anything in Mnemosyne using a Python script. Problem for Windows is that to achieve this, users first need to install Python and all the other required libraries, and then install Mnemosyne as a Python module. This is complicated and time consuming, which is why the Windows installer includes its own python installation, different from the system's Python install.

Feel free to add any feature request to our uservoice forum, so that other people can vote for it.

Cheers,

Peter
