Plan & Implement Cloze syntax.

[alanxoc3]

Anki has a cloze syntax. I was just using underscores, but there is no official one.

Same with newlines. Right now that is not supported.

:> {:我}\:喜{:欢}你 : I like you <:
   {}\:喜{}你 | 我, 喜
   我喜欢你 | I like you
   I like you | 我\:喜欢你

:> {我喜|欢|你|的狗} : I {like} your dog <:
   {}欢你的狗 | 我喜
   我喜{}你的狗 | 欢
   我喜欢{}的狗 | 你
   我喜欢你{} | 的狗
   我喜欢你的狗 | I like your dog
   I like your dog | 我喜欢你的狗
   I {} your dog | like

:> {:我喜|欢}你{的:狗} <:
   {}欢你的{} | 我喜, 狗
   我喜{}你的狗 | 欢
   我喜欢你{}狗 | 的

:> {:{我|喜}|欢}你{:的|狗} <:
   {}喜欢你{}狗 | 我, 的
   我{}欢你{}狗 | 喜, 的
   我喜{}你的狗 | 欢
   我喜欢你的{} | 狗

:> 你好
 : hello
 | A greeting
<:

Those are examples of what the cloze syntax will probably look like. Notice how I'm thinking about replacing the @> syntax with :> too.

I like the plan in the previous comment, so that is what I'll implement.

Nevermind, I have a slightly different idea for cloze syntax:

This flashcard:
:> {郎才|女貌}
:: Smart {boys} get pretty {girls}.
 | Smart men get beautiful women.
<:

Becomes these flashcards:
:> {}女貌 | 郎才
:> 郎才{} | 女貌
:> Smart {} get pretty girls. | boys
:> Smart boys get pretty {}. | girls
:> 郎才女貌 | Smart boys get pretty girls. | Smart men get beautiful women.
:> Smart boys get pretty girls. | 郎才女貌
:> Smart men get beatiful women. | 郎才女貌
<:

Here is a different example that shows blanks going together with multiple
brackets:

:> Turning {{{{notes}}}} into {{flashcards}}, or should I say {{{concards}}}!
   {{{Concards}}} is my {ongoing | attempt | to} make {{flashcards}} simple and
   easily embeddable into {text} document {based} {{{{notes}}}}.
<:

Becomes:
:> Turning {} into flashcards, or should I say concards! Concards is my ongoing
   attempt to make flashcards simple and easily embeddable into text document
   based {}.
 | notes, notes
:> Turning notes into {}, or should I say concards! Concards is my ongoing
   attempt to make {} simple and easily embeddable into text document based notes.
 | flashcards, flashcards
:> Turning notes into flashcards, or should I say {}! {} is my ongoing attempt
   to make flashcards simple and easily embeddable into text document based notes.
 | concards, Concards
:> Turning notes into flashcards, or should I say concards! Concards is my {}
   attempt to make flashcards simple and easily embeddable into text document
   based notes.
 | ongoing
:> Turning notes into flashcards, or should I say concards! Concards is my
   ongoing {} to make flashcards simple and easily embeddable into text document
   based notes.
 | attempt
:> Turning notes into flashcards, or should I say concards! Concards is my
   ongoing attempt {} make flashcards simple and easily embeddable into text
   document based notes.
 | to
:> Turning notes into flashcards, or should I say concards! Concards is my
   ongoing attempt to make flashcards simple and easily embeddable into {}
   document based notes.
 | text
:> Turning notes into flashcards, or should I say concards! Concards is my
   ongoing attempt to make flashcards simple and easily embeddable into text
   document {} notes.
 | based

That comment also shows that I want to get rid of the : colon syntax and replace it with ::. The reasoning is because there would be less conflicts that way and it looks nicer (colon is a pretty common character).

Ok, I have yet another iteration of the cloze syntax. This also tries to replace the @> or :> with #::#

This flashcard:
#: {郎才:女貌}
:: Smart {boys} get pretty {girls}.
 | Smart men get beautiful women.
:#

Becomes these flashcards:
#: {}女貌 | 郎才
#: 郎才{} | 女貌
#: Smart {} get pretty girls. | boys
#: Smart boys get pretty {}. | girls
#: 郎才女貌 | Smart boys get pretty girls. | Smart men get beautiful women.
#: Smart boys get pretty girls. | 郎才女貌
#: Smart men get beatiful women. | 郎才女貌

Here is a different example that shows blanks going together with multiple
brackets:

#: Turning ###{notes} into #{flashcards}, or should I say ##{concards}!
   ##{Concards} is my {ongoing. attempt. to} make #{flashcards} simple and
   easily embeddable into {text} document {based} ###{notes}.
:#

Becomes:
#: Turning {} into flashcards, or should I say concards! Concards is my ongoing
   attempt to make flashcards simple and easily embeddable into text document
   based {}.
