Hemlock

Do you create flashcards using Excel or Numbers? Well ingrain those flashcards in your head with this gem!

First, save your flashcards as .csv - if you have more than one sheet in your excel or numbers document you can save a folder of CSV.

Then in a terminal,

gem install hemlock
hemlock drink ~/Dropbox/flashcards

or whatever folder contains .csv flashcards.

This was made by me for me to study for the bar, but if hopefully it can help others deal with one of the biggest flaws of academia/standardized testing, requiring rote memorization.

Why the name?

Hemlock is what Socrates was forced to drink to kill himself. As someone who detested writing because it erodes memory, I thought I'd dedicate my forced writing practice to him. RIP old guy.
