HTML tags - bulk editing of cards

[Jacek]

Hi!

Some of my oldest cards were created quite a few years ago on Ubuntu. I used to increase font look and size by adding HTML tags to my cards (e.g. "<font size="+3"> text </font>" or  <small><i> text </small></i>). Is it possible to remove those tags by bulk editing of the cards? I tried the simplest way i.e. removed them within .db file by find and replace (replacing with "nothing"), but it seems to meddle with the file enough to prevent Mnemosyne from running. Is there any way to do it properly?

Hi,

 

Have a look at this script:

 

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~sampablokuper/mnemosyne-proj/mnemosyne-proj/view/head:/mnemosyne/mnemosyne/example_scripts/find_and_replace.py

 

Cheers,

 

Peter

Hi Peter,

I'm not that deep into programming but I can execute python file. Am I to do it in Mnemosyne folder?

data_dir = None - I can leave it as "none" if Mnemosyne was installed in default directory?

Hi,

 

Where you run the script is not relevant, but Mnemosyne needs to be installed in the standard Python directory. This happens by default on Linux, but not on Windows, where you have to install a lot of dependencies manually first.

 

Data_dir = None is OK in your case.

 

Oh, and do make a backup before you let self-written scripts loose on your database J

 

Cheers,

 

Petert

Hi Peter,

Well, I wasn't clear enough. I started using Mnemosyne on Ubuntu, but now I'm working on Windows, which seems to make it far more complicated.

If there's lot of fiddling with Windows, I think I'd better get Ubuntu installed on my old computer, do it there and re-export data back to Windows.
