Using topics
Topics are marked in Contents with a green T icon (). Topics may be very long (entire articles) or very short (single sentences). This is how you work with topics:
- read the topic from the top
- if you find some interesting information, extract it (e.g. with Alt+X); the extract will form a new independent topic; the new topic will be shorter and will be handled in the same way as all other topics
- decide how far you want to go into reading the topic depending on its priority and available time (e.g. interrupt fast, if you are in a hurry, or read it all, if the topic is of top importance)
- if you finish reading the topic, execute Done! (e.g. Ctrl+Shift+Enter); this will delete the topic without deleting the material that it produced
- only if the topic is as short as a single sentence, create cloze deletions (e.g. with Alt+Z)
- return to reading the topic next time it comes for review
On longer topics you read and extract, on very short topics you generate cloze deletions.
