Hi,
Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I couldn't find an answer.

I need to learn a corpus of data thet IS in the form of multiple choice (complete with correct, distracting and dead wrong answers).
I'm unsure if Mnemosyne is the Right Tool and I would like to get pointers, if available.

Ideally I would like something showing me the questions with all answers (possibly in random places) and giving me some way to chose the right one (either by buttons or radioButton); "difficulty" could be easily computed by using the time I spent thinking.
The normal algorythm could be used to present questions.

I am a programmer and I would contribute a suitable plugin, if deemed useful and if not too complex.

Please advise

Regards
Mauro

P.S.: I *KNOW* multiple choice isn't supposed to be a good way to learn, but, as said, data *IS* in that format and tests will be delivered in that format.

I have made a javascript that randomises a list that can be placed in the card. You may customize it to display radio buttons.

This is not a feature in mnemosyne, but it has already been suggested to the idea site: https://mnemosyne.uservoice.com/forums/164265-general/suggestions/3261499-allow-reviewing-of-cards-based-on-thinking-time

You should ask Peter if you have any questions regarding plugin developent, there is also some info on the mnemosyne homepage.
