Readq - incremental reading for emacs
Hi all, I want to introduce my ‘readq’ package some of you might find useful.
https://github.com/n0w1ht/readq
readq is SuperMemo-style incremental reading in one elisp file.
1. Read something for a bit.
2. Hit `C-c r n`. readq saves your exact spot, logs the time, reschedules the item by priority, and throws you into the next most important thing that's due.
3. Extract the good bits. Each extract becomes its own item in the queue, which you trim, split into sub-extracts, and eventually turn into Anki or org-drill cards.
It handles PDFs (pdf-tools or SumatraPDF as I’m on windows), EPUB (needs nov.el), Org/Markdown, web pages (through eww), media files (videos, audios, YouTube via mpv), and even comic books (.cbz/cbr files). There's also a daily time budget, exam deadlines, figure extracts, consult search over your extracts, and reading streaks for the dopamine.
There's also a companion package, multi-region, for grabbing several passages (and pictures) at once and pulling them into one extract.
It's young and very much shaped around how I study, so I'd love to hear from people who've done incremental reading in SuperMemo, org-roam setups, or anything else. Bug reports, feature ideas and "why didn't you just use X" are all welcome.
