Re: Org mode repeated dates to do spaced learning

[Andrea Giugliano <agiugliano@live.it>]

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. You are right org-drill does spaced repetition. I
just was unclear: I would like to see that in the agenda as a normal
item (that gets space-repeated every time I mark it DONE though).
I could not get from the docs if org-drill does that.

Thanks,

Andrea
