GQuiz is a generic question/answer drilling program. You provide a program that displays the question and answer, given as a single filename on the command line, and gquiz randomizes, prevents immediate repetition, and temporarily eliminates questions you've answered correctly "enough" times in a row. The author uses GQuiz with cgoban to study go, the Asian strategy game, but it could just as well be used to memorize States and their Capitals, or foreign language vocabulary, etc.

GnomeRSVP

| Vit | 2.06 |
GnomeRSVP is a "Rapid Serial Visual Projector" similar to products like AceReader. In this dynamic representation of text, each word is flashed on the screen one at a time in succession. The reader is less inclined to "oralize" the text, rather the reader interprets whole words as meaningful written symbols. Automatic re-reading of adjacent previous text is therefore rendered impossible. This results in much higher reading speeds than are possible with standard techniques.
