WinFlash has been repeatedly recognized as the leading program of its type, winning the Shareware Industry Award for Best Educational Program, the Educational Shareware Cooperative's People's Choice and 5-star rankings from many popular download sites.
Here are some key features of "WinFlash Scholar":
· A new pair type - a modification of the fill-in-the-blank type - can handle up to six answers within a single pair. This makes it ideal for use in foreign language study of verb conjugation, but also has many other possible uses. Optionally check for the order of the answers given
· Check your decks with a powerful Spell Checker and Thesaurus - you can even use your already-created Microsoft Word custom dictionaries. Download additional free dictionaries for use with many other languages - including British (definitely another language :-)), French, German and Spanish as well as specialized dictionaries for technical, medical and legal use
· Table-style view of the deck has been added to the editor - complete with keys for what features are used in each pair
· Sophisticated Search and Replace tool usable in both study mode and edit mode
· Printing of flashcards, tables and tests has been greatly enhanced
· The popular Cheers & Jeers feature now supports up to 50 different cheers and jeers
· The One Pass|Ask All Pairs Equally Often mode now supports multiple reruns - each one showing only the misses from the previous pass
· Programmable Glossary Buttons have been added to the Question and Answer panels of the editor and to the Fill-In-The- Blank entry dialog. These 10 buttons can each be assigned to ANY character or character string (up to 300 characters) contained in the selected font. This is of great help in studying foreign languages which require accented characters that are not normally accessible from the keyboard. There are 9 independent sets of button codes, allowing for 90 character strings to be programmed for BOTH Q's and A's.
· A backup utility has been added, allowing a copy of all root-named files needed by the deck to be saved with BAK appended to the root name.
· A delete utility assures that all root-named files associated with the deck are deleted when a deck is removed.
Limitations:
