Here are some shortcuts for SuperMemo. Most of them were introduced to me by Raj on our first tutorial call.

Things I use all the time (almost every time in each study session):

  • Alt-x -- extract the highlighted text
  • Alt-p -- modify priority. For priority, use 33 for highly applicable, 66 for interesting but not necessarily immediately applicable, and 88 for probably kinda useless but might be worth exploring later
  • Ctrl-Shift-r/Ctrl-j (these two are subtly different) -- set when you will next see the article
  • Alt-t -- use highlighted text for title
  • Alt-q -- use highlighted text for metadata
  • Ctrl-F7 -- set readpoint
  • Ctrl-F5 -- apply default layout (for some reason SuperMemo keeps reverting to an odd layout every time I reopen it)
  • Ctrl-d -- dismiss element (you won't see it during reviews, but it will not be deleted)

Things I use much more rarely:

  • Alt-z -- create cloze deletion
  • q -- takes you into editing mode
  • F6 -- applies a filter to the HTML to clean it up
  • Ctrl-F8 -- then check, to process images to be saved in sidebar
  • Shift-Ctrl-m -- choose template to use
  • Shift-Ctrl-a -- imports from IE; check article, then check "close browser" (alt-c); then import
  • Ctrl-Shift-p -- change concept; alt-g to change group
  • Ctrl-Enter -- SuperMemo commander; then type split
  • Ctrl-Space -- priorities view for spreading; click on subset you want to spread first
