Hi,
I am considering using ZDT as my one and only note taking tool in Chinese class. In order to do
that I need to be able to input example sentences along with the word translations in every
flashcard. Ideally, each entry would contain a text area that could optionnally be filled and
would be saved along with the rest of the card.

I guess I can develop this myself but I don't really know where to start. I took a look at the
developer's guide and it seems doable, even though my java is a bit rusty. Could someone please
point me in the right direction? (I don't expect this feature to be implemented in the base
version of ZDT, this shouldprobably take the form of a plugin).

If I can't do it I guess I'll ressort to the usual pen and paper plugin...

If you want to write extensions for ZDT, besides some Java knowledge, you're also going to have to
learn some Eclipse RCP programming. To do what you want to do will probably require some changes
to the user database schema to support this extra data.

Anyway, if you can wait, this is something I plan on getting to. Besides adding support for adding
additional text, i want to also allow attaching of sounds and images as well.
