[QUOTE=FBergeron;609628]@imdense:
The help text needs to be updated a bit as the application looks a little bit different on N900. That's the last thing I will do before releasing the next version.
Here is what you should do.
To import an existing glossary:
1) Click the first item (My glossaries) of the list on the left side.
2) In the toMOTko menu (top center), you should have an item Import Data, click it.
3) Select the glossary file (in your case, it should be the file JBP-I.zip)
4) The words should be available in the application after that.
Now, to perform a quiz with some the imported words, you need to mark them for study. To do that, you click the checkboxes of the glossaries and also the checkboxes of the words that you want to learn (on the right side list).
To start a quiz, in the application menu, you will have an Start Quiz item, click it.
The Eye button reveals information gradually (you can click it more than once). Click the Green Circle button to indicate a right answer, or the Red X for a wrong answer.
By default, I think that each word is asked at least 3 times (and more if you indicate a wrong answer). If it's too much for you, you can decrease the minimal number of times a word is asked in the Preferences (in the application menu) and set Quiz Length to 1.
If you see no Preferences item or no Import Data or no Start Quiz item in the application menu, it's probably because of this bug:

Tell me if it works or not.[/QUOTE
had a look at that thread and it appears i have that bug. however, with no experience using smartphones, maemo, other apps, programming or systems, i dont think i can get it working unless i have a clear user friendly step by step guide. unless this happens then ill think ill wait until your final n900 version. thanks
