gwavmerger

The gwavmerger project is a software tool designed to assist with learning foreign languages. It aims to help users memorize long passages of text by providing an interactive method of memory training. For individuals studying a foreign language, it is often challenging to learn and retain information through memorizing 40 or more sentences. However, gwavmerger aims to ease the process of learning by heart.

With the latest release of gwavmerger, users can expect several improvements to the software. The inclusion of playback support for ogg/mp3 files, the ability to save and restore the main window position on the desktop, and a major rework of MergeDialog with all-in-one coherent progress bars are just a few of the added features. Additionally, the visual cursor now jumps to the next cell after the soundbite has been played, with the color customizable via cursor_color configuration variable. The addition of a sound playback progress bar is a particularly nice touch.

Other notable changes include the splitting of on-line help into a separate gwavmerger-manual package, the fix of the detachable control toolbar, and the addition of keyboard navigation. The application icon is now transparent, and the software has undergone porting to Gtkmm-2.4. The software also includes a history of the last path visited for file dialogs, and bug fixes have been implemented to correct list scrolling and prevent core dump on exit.

Overall, the gwavmerger software offers a useful interactive memory training tool for individuals studying foreign languages or seeking to memorize lengthy passages of text. The recent improvements and bug fixes further strengthen its features and usability.
