deck and card info sidebar during review

This is an extended modification of the add-on Extended Card Stats During Review. You can show/hide the sidebar with the shortcut "Shift+C" during reviews or from the main window toolbar with Tools->"Card Stats". In the add-on config you can set if the sidebar is visible by default. The add-on remembers the last state.

The sidebar contents are different from the other add-ons. There are deck options, only card properties that are relevant (to me) and a shorter and less wide table of repetitions. This version makes it easier to configure what is shown in the sidebar (if you know some python).

# Compatibility to other add-ons This add-on does not work with the add-on Progress Bar (in 2020-06-08). This limitation also applies to other sidebar add-ons like "Extended Card Stats During Review", see this bug report. "the fix will have to be implemented on Progress Bar's side". Since this add-on is a modification of "Extended Card Stats During Review" which is a modification of "Card Info During Review" they can't be combined. It also doesn't work with the add-on "Warrior Mode - Stats & Debug".

# Meaning of abbreviations used The add-on uses abbreviations in the sidebar so that the sidebar can be more compact.

On top for the deck options there is:

• "OptGr": Name of the option group
• "Steps": Steps ("New Cards" tab of deck options)
• "LSteps": Steps ("Lapses" tab of deck options)
• "GrIv": Graduating Interval ("New Cards" tab of deck options)
• "EaIv": Easy Interval ("New Cards" tab of deck options)
• "EaBo": Easy Bonus ("Reviews" tab of deck options)
• "IvMo": Interval Modifier ("Reviews" tab of deck options)
• "LpIv": New interval ("Lapses" tab of deck options)

Then you have "Ivl" for "Interval" and "cid" which stands for "card id". the "card id" stores the creation time of card in a special format (epoch/unix time in milliseconds).

The columns in the revision table have the following meaning:

• "Date": the last time you rated the card
• "T" refers to the state of the card: Learned ("Lrn"), Review ("Rev"), Relearned ("ReLn"), Filtered ("Filt"), Defered/Rescheduled ("Resch")
• "R" means how you rated it: "1" means again, "2" means hard, "3" is good, "4" is easy (if you the v2 scheduler)
• "Ivl" is the interval
• "Ease" means the ease(ivlfct) property of the card: It's the approximate amount the interval will grow when you answer a review card with the “Good” button, see the manual.

# bugs If you you run into problems with this add-on you should use glutanimate's original. Please do not use reviews for bug reports or support requests. I don't get notified of your reviews, and properly troubleshooting an issue through them is nearly impossible (formatting is limited and I can't reply multiple times). If you find a bug let me know in the official anki support forum, on github.
