Hello everyone,
I'm taking an informal but intensive Nepali language class. There's no
textbook, and vocabulary comes rapidly from the teacher during lcass. I
end up with notes that look like this:
**** yo & tyo-based constructions
*yo*
| yatti | this much |
| katti | how much |
| yaha | this place |
| kaahaa | where |
| yasto | |
| kasto | how |
| yasari | |
| kasari | |
*tyo* and *u*
similar, but over there. nearly synonymous is "u", which in principle is
reserved for persons, but is used for both. "u" can also be in between yo
and two, between this and that.
- u kosto manche ho? :: what kind of person is he?
- u kosto manche ho? :: u asal manche ho
---------
So there are two types of notes here --
- vocabulary in a 2-column table (sometimes there is a third or fourth
table, with devenagri and a note of some kind, ubt thosse have been rare)
- example sentences in definition lists -- sometimes they are nepali -->
english, and osmetimes question --> answer
I would like ot convert both these types of construction to flashcards
using org-drill, but doing so by hand would be prohibitively
time-consuming. Has anyone already written some code to doe these kinds of
ocnversions? My head is so scrambled fro mthis ocurse that it's hard for me
to think in lisp...
THank you!
Matt
I would like to convert

Hi.
I am trying to learn Japanese and I am creating word lists as:
Kanji/Katakana <TAB> Katakana <TAB> meaning
理由 りゆう reason
地理 ちり geography
無理な むりな impossible
特に とくに especially
安い やすい cheap
I just now scraped together the following to turn it into org-drill format.
I have not written any elisp for probably at least 40 years so, as they say, よろしくお願いします。
You should be able to munge it for your purposes.
(defun txt-to-TSV ()
"turn a tab-separated text line into TSV"
(interactive)
(save-mark-and-excursion
(save-restriction
(let ((beg (progn (beginning-of-line) (point)))
(end (progn (forward-line)
(if (looking-at "\n")
(- (point) 1)
(point))))
(tabs nil)
(tsv (vector))
(prev nil))
(narrow-to-region beg end)
(goto-char beg)
(setq tabs (vector beg))
(setq prev beg)
(while (< (point) end)
(if (looking-at "\t")
(progn
(setq tabs (vconcat tabs (vector (point))))
(setq tsv (vconcat tsv (vector (buffer-substring prev (point)))))
(setq prev (+ 1 (point)))))
(forward-word))
(setq tabs (vconcat tabs (vector end)))
(setq tsv (vconcat tsv (vector (buffer-substring prev (point)))))
))
))
(defun txt-to-drill (arg)
"convert TSV to drill"
(interactive "p")
(while (> arg 0)
(setq arg (- arg 1))
(let ((tsv (txt-to-TSV))
(query (concat
"*** Query :drill:\n"
" :PROPERTIES:\n"
" :END:\n"))
(answer (concat
"**** Answer\n")))
(if (> (length tsv) 2)
(progn
(beginning-of-line)
(insert "\n" query (aref tsv 0))
(insert "\n" answer (aref tsv 1))
(let ((i 2))
(while (< i (length tsv))
(insert "\n" (aref tsv i))
(setq i (+ 1 i))))
(insert "\n")
(insert "# ")
(beginning-of-line)
(forward-line)))
)))

Just noticed a bug as I was reading my post. Just if argument-prefix is applied, it will keep trying a line with no tabs (or less than 2) and not advance the line. I’m sure there are more….

This version is somewhat better. It skips comment lines and org headers lines, plus fixes a few bugs, while introducing an equal measure of new ones + 1.
