Description

Memorize: Long-Form Text & Poetry Importer

Memorize is a specialized Anki add-on designed for users who want to commit long-form texts—such as poems, scripts, or foreign language prose—to memory using a structured, overlapping cloze system.

Key Features

Overlapping Cloze System: Automatically generates cards where the previous sentence (or line) provides context for the current cloze. This "chaining" method is highly effective for memorizing sequential information.
Multi-Format Support: Import text directly from PDF, EPUB, or TXT files.
Automated Audio Generation (macOS): Automatically generates high-quality audio for every cloze using macOS's built-in say command. Perfect for language learners! (Requires ffmpeg).
Poetic Mode: Toggle between standard sentence-based splitting and newline-based splitting, making it ideal for poetry and verse.
Built-in Text Editor: Preview and edit the extracted text before generating cards to ensure perfect formatting.
Customizable Metadata: Easily set the Title, Target Deck, and Custom Tags for your new cards.

How it Works

Select a File: Browse for a PDF, EPUB, or TXT file.
Preview & Clean: The add-on extracts the text into a preview area where you can make manual adjustments.
Configure: Choose your deck, tags, and audio settings (Language/Voice).
Generate: The add-on creates a specialized "Memorize-Sentence-Cloze" note type and populates your deck with overlapping cards.

Requirements

macOS: Audio generation currently utilizes the native macOS say utility.
ffmpeg: Required for converting generated audio to MP3 format.

Note: This add-on is optimized for macOS users seeking a streamlined workflow for memorizing literature and languages.
