How to import cards from a file

File Format
A file that contains cards must have the extention ".tsv".
".tsv" means Tab Separated Values. So some values are separated by tab, not "," like .csv (csv means Comma Separated Values)
You can open and edit .tsv file in Notepad or your favorite text editor.

In this application, values are front texts, back texts, and tags.
You can omit tags, or specify more than one tags by using comma.
So texts in a file look like

Front0[tab]Back0
Front1[tab]Back1[tab]Tag1
Front2[tab]Back2[tab]Tag2-1,Tag2-2

A Sample file to import is here.

F&Q

Q. Why this application require Internet Connection?
This application connects to internet only to import cards from your Dropbox files.

Q. I don't have Dropbox account.
I think Dropbox is worth to try, since it is free (and really useful).
Still, you can import cards from files in the SD card and add cards in the application, so no problem.
