Session duration 0:00:00. Recall of reviewed items: Excellent (5): 0% | Near miss (2): 0% Good (4): 0% | Failure (1): 0% Hard (3): 0% | Abject failure (0): 0% You successfully recalled 0% of reviewed items (quality > 2) 0/1 items still await review (0 failed, 0 overdue, 0 new, 0 young, 0 old). Tomorrow, 0 more items will become due for review. Session finished. Press a key to continue... #+END_EXAMPLE i wasn't prompted for any new items and the message "tomorrow, 0 more items will become due for review" worries me. also, running org-drill-again gives me the same message. i'm sure i'm doing something wrong, but i can't figure out what... would appriciate any help pointing me in the right direction. Org-mode version 7.8.02 (and org-drill included with it), GNU Emacs 23.3.1. TIA Joost btw, i noticed that some of the customize items in org-drill.el are incorrectly defined. for example, the :type declaration in org-drill-spaced-repetition-algorithm is: :type '(choice (const 'sm2) (const 'sm5) (const 'simple8)) but the symbols shouldn't be quoted: :type '(choice (const sm2) (const sm5) (const simple8)) there are one or two more cases like this. they're labelled in the customize buffer as "MISMATCH". -- Dr. Joost Kremers Georg-August-Universität Seminar für Deutsche Philologie Käte-Hamburger-Weg 3 D-37073 Göttingen
