Instructions for use
To learn how to use this program to create your flash cards, a walkthrough
is presented. The student who is setting up this walkthrough is going to create a file to help him or her learn
the Spanish numbers from 1 - 10, and some common words representing Spanish colours.
- When creating a flash card file, the first thing you should do is
set the languages for this new file. Select "Edit" from the main menu, followed by "Set Languages...". In this example we are
going to create flashcards for learning Spanish.

- Enter in the languages used in this set of cards, and click OK.

- Now, you will need to add a new category. Select the New Category button
and
enter a name for the new category.

- Notice how the name of the current category appears on the title bar of the form.

- The time has come to enter in the flash cards!
Enter one flash card on each line. Enter the first language in the first column,
and the second language in the second column. You can use either the mouse, the arrow keys or
the TAB key to move around the grid.

- The two numbers at the end represent the difficulty of this card. If
you want this card to appear more often, you would enter a lower number. If you want this card to appear less often,
you would enter a higher number. Until you are familiar with the flash cards application, it is recommended
to leave these numbers at their default value (45).
- Let's add another category, by clicking the New Category button
, and
entering a name for the new category.

- And let's add some words to this new category.

- Click the save button
to save your work. Give your file a name, and save it somewhere
on your computer.

- To transfer this file from your computer to your mobile phone, please follow the
instructions in the guide.
You're complete! Now, you can use the
Darnkitty Flash Cards application to improve your vocabulary!
