Project - Mosaic
================
This program is a simplistic OpenGL-based flashcard viewer that implements a modified version of
the SuperMemo algorithm (v2). It is vaguely similar to Anki, but is completely local. A (local)
sqlite database is used to persist user information (required for the algorithm).
Flashcards can contain images, including animated gifs, and are re-flowed to a comfortable line
length, but are otherwise displayed as-is. Flashcards are supplied as arguments to the executable,
so sub-sets are naturally possible. What consitutes a 'session' (important for the algoithm) is a
little bit fuzzy, so a grace time of prior to when the last session began is used to demarcate the
most recent session. Currently sessions do not honour flashcard sub-sets, but you can swap out the
database to accomplish more fine-grained behaviour if desired.
The name 'mosaic' comes from an earlier version of this program that was created as a tiling
image viewer. The display code, layout code, and modal approach were suited for flashcard review so
the rest of the code was tailored to support flashcard review.
