Color Categories Plugin v1.0

Author: gbear605

Inspired by: T. Bourke 20080831

Change the window color depending on the current card's first tag.

This plugin is a prototype only. Feedback and suggestions are welcome.

INSTALLATION

1. Copy cat_colors.py into the Mnemosyne plugins subdirectory.

2. Add a cat_colors declaration to the Mnemosyne config.py file, e.g.: cat_colors = {"German": 0xFFFF0000, "dates": 0xFF00FF00, "world": 0xFF0000FF, "geography": 0xFFAABBCC}

   Tag names are given to the left of the colon (:), RGB hex values to the right.

3. Optionally add a cat_color_default declaration to set the default color for tags that don't have a set color. If you don't add one, the default color will be white. e.g.: cat_color_default = 0xFFFFFFFF

4. Start Mnemosyne.

5. Exit Mnemosyne.

6. Start Mnemosyne. The window should now change colour according to the current card's category.

TODO

• Improve configuration (GUI extensions?).
• Make work on Android app and web server (requires changing Mnemosyne)
