anki-editor – an Emacs package that helps you create Anki cards in Org-mode

Requirements

• anki-connect, an Anki add-on which is required for this package to interact with Anki.
• curl

Usage

1. Download it and put it into your Emacs' load-path
2. (require 'anki-editor)

3. Write notes in org syntax, e.g. examples.org

   • Headings of deck are tagged with deck
   • Headings of note are tagged with note
   • Custom properties of a note heading can be used to specify note type and tags
   • Subheadings of a note heading are fields of its note type
   • The contents of field headings will be converted to html by org-mode's html backend, with the latex syntax translated to the Anki style
