Hi there,

Just wanted to start by thanking you for making a tool like this, I think it's an amazing idea.

As somebody with a remedial level of programming knowledge, I was wondering if you could direct me to the repository where we store the files we want to import.

Using the command: slides2anki -U "~/Library/Application Support/Anki2/myProfileName" example_notes.txt Veg-food-in-Japan.pdf decktest.apkg I believe I have been able to successfully route the file path of my user profile.

However, when I run the command, I get the error Error while reading source files: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'example_notes.txt' . I have tried putting the PDF and example_notes from your test folder in various directories, including the folder for my own user profile. I have also tried storing it in the slidesimport folder within the python site-packages directory, but to no avail.

If you have any idea why this is happening, please let me know. I would really love to take advantage of this wonderful tool. :)

Best regards,
Mousa

Hi,

I'm happy to see a tool like this in development since I'm doing a tough degree
ch513notes__electronic_conduction.txt
program in school: I hope it will see more updates sometime. I'm running on Mac OS, and I encountered an error message after the following command, per the docs:

slides2anki /Users/Usr/Desktop/ch513notes__electronic_conduction.txt /Users/Usr/Downloads/Electrical+Conductivity-2021-revised.pdf ch513_econductivity_deck -U "/Users/Usr/Library/Application Support/Anki2/User_1"

And here was the result/error:

Verifying arguments ...
Done.
Reading files ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/Usr/anaconda3/bin/slides2anki", line 8, in <module>
    sys.exit(run())

    slideQList[slideNum].append(cgi.escape(lineMatch.group('line')))
AttributeError: module 'cgi' has no attribute 'escape'

Did I do something wrong? If not, is there any fix at present?

Any guidance would be appreciated: 67 slides is plenty to do by hand, anyhow, haha.

Thanks for the addon, nice idea!

It would be nice if one could specify which part of the slide is used to create the images from (instead of using the entire slide). This way common (distracting) headers and footers can be removed from the image. Those could either be added as a commandline argument (such as --dimensions 100:100:400:400 where each number represents a corner) or added to the notes file (probably makes more sense).

I want to find out about the parser and if there is a syntax for identifying different fields in the text based slide notes.

Also, I am wondering if there is a way to combine (append) the image from a slide with text notes. And if there is a way to include images (or references to images) in the text based slide notes.
