8 <P>Vocabulary trainer for mobile devices, written in QT which
9 supports <A HREF="#KVTML">kvtml</A> files from the KDE (kdeedu) project, so many ready
10 made training files are available. Querymee allows you to train
11 languages and to memorize things.</P>
13 <P>Additionally the following file formats are supported (read only):
15 <li><A HREF="#VOC">.voc</A> files from <A HREF="http://www.vokabeln.de/v1/download.htm">http://www.vokabeln.de/</A></li>
16 <li><A HREF="#TSV">.tsv</A> files (Tab Separated Values) created with openoffice.org calc, excel or any text editor</li>
20 <P>At the moment just multiple choice is supported, but so called
21 flash card learning is planned (we are looking for developers
22 to help with that).</P>
24 <P><H2><A name="KVTML">.kvtml files</A></H2></P>
26 <P>As main file format KDEs kvtml format is used (a XML format), so you can easily
27 edit and create your own files with <A HREF="http://edu.kde.org/parley/">Parley</A>
28 or <A HREF="http://edu.kde.org/kwordquiz/">KwordQuiz</A>. Parley
29 and KwordQuiz run also under windows (might be that not all
30 features are fully supported, but to create a kvtml file it is
31 sufficent), please see the
32 <A HREF="http://windows.kde.org/">The KDE on Windows Project</A>.</P>
34 <P>The program <A HREF="http://peterandlinda.com/wordquiz/">WordQuiz</A>
35 from Peter B. Hedlund also creates kvtml files. It works under
36 Windows and Mac OS X. It might be easier to
37 <A HREF="http://peterandlinda.com/wordquiz/download/">install</A>
38 than the KDE programs under Windows. It can be used to create your own
41 <P>Store your own kvtml files under MyDocs/Querymee in your N900 so
42 Querymee finds it and offers it in the pull-down menu. You can
43 store the file anywhere, then use the “open dictionary“ dialogue
44 from the menu to open it.
46 <P>Please make the files public available,
47 <A HREF="http://edu.kde.org/parley/">Parley</A>
48 has build in support to upload files. To upload files on kde-files.org you need
49 an account, you can register at:
50 <A HREF="http://kde-files.org/usermanager/new.php">http://kde-files.org/usermanager/new.php</A>.
51 You can upload files also via the web interface without Parley at:
52 <A HREF="http://kde-files.org/content/add.php">http://kde-files.org/content/add.php</A>.
53 It takes some time until the file shows up in the catalogue...</P>
55 <P>You can also use ready made kvtml files from the KDE project,
56 use the “Download KVTML files” dialogue from the menu. The first
57 time you open it the list will be empty, just click the button
58 “update list” and Querymee will download the freshest list from
59 the internet. Unfortunately some kvtml files are uploaded in
60 compressed form, Querymee is not yet able to handle these files.</P>
62 <P>You can also browse the lists here:<BR>

71 <P><H2><A name="VOC">.voc files</A></H2></P>
73 <P>Querymee (starting from version 0.1.2) is able to open vocabulary files from
74 <A HREF="http://www.vokabeln.de/v1/funktionen.htm">Langenscheidt
75 Vokabeltrainer Version 1</A>. More than 150 ready made files are
76 listed on the <A HREF="http://www.vokabeln.de/v1/download.htm">download page.</A>
77 The files are zipped, so extract the .voc files first and store them under
78 MyDocs/Querymee in your N900 so Querymee finds it and offers it in the pull-down menu.
79 You can store the file anywhere, then use the “open dictionary“ dialogue
80 from the menu to open it.</P>
82 <P><H2><A name="TSV">.tsv files</A></H2></P>
84 <P>Querymee (starting from version 0.1.2) is able to open "Tab Separated Values"
85 vocabulary files. An example .tsv file can be found in the sources under
86 <A HREF="http://gitorious.org/querymee/querymee/blobs/master/doc/example.tsv">doc/example.tsv</A>.</P>
88 <P>The example, where <font color="red"><TAB></font> denotes a TAB character (TAB-Key),
89 do not surround the values with any text indicating character like " or ':</P>
92 Expression<font color="red"><TAB></font>Translation 1<font color="red"><TAB></font>Translation 2
93 ajaa<font color="red"><TAB></font>fahren<font color="red"><TAB></font>to drive
94 aloittaa<font color="red"><TAB></font>anfangen<font color="red"><TAB></font>to start
97 <P>You can write such files with any text editor, but it's much easier with a spreadsheet application:
99 <li><A HREF="http://www.openoffice.org/product/calc.html">OpenOffice.org Calc</A>:
100 <A HREF="http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2720&p=11987">
101 saving calc files as tab delimited</A><br>In short: To save it, you Save As a "Text CSV", and when asked for a Field Delimiter, select {Tab}, instead of ",".</li>
102 <li>Microsoft Office Excel:
103 <A HREF="http://blogs.howtogeek.com/mysticgeek/2008/08/03/convert-an-excel-spreadsheet-to-a-tab-delimited-text-file/">

107 <A HREF="http://projects.gnome.org/gnumeric/doc/sect-file-textExport.shtml">Exporting Text Files</A></li>
109 Just make sure you save your file with the file ending .tsv before you transfer it to the N900.
110 Store your own tsv files under MyDocs/Querymee in your N900 so
111 Querymee finds it and offers it in the pull-down menu. You can
112 store the file anywhere, then use the “open dictionary“ dialogue
113 from the menu to open it.</P>
