Hi Folks, I'm still working on zyzzyva for the live-cd. Has anyone had any luck compiling it on Debian? In particular, I'm using the qt4-X11 debian package...
I've released a new version of Zyzzyva, 0.11.0. Zyzzyva is a program for studying words and practicing anagramming. It runs on Windows 2000/NT/XP, Windows...
Hey Michael, Great job with all the new features and fixes. As I had previously posted, I was most interested in the probability feature which you've now...
First, I was wondering if it would be possible to sort the search results by probability. We novices need to prioritize the filling of our brains. :) Second,...
... Yikes! This is definitely a bug. Apparently my QA person wasn't doing a good enough job... oh wait, that's me. :-) That's a serious enough bug that I'll...
... Oh, by the way... the bug is in the code that *reads* the saved quiz file, not the code that writes it. The quizzes are saved correctly, so feel free to...
... I know, that group includes me too! More advanced sorting and grouping of lists (including sorting by probability) is something I would like to implement...
I've just released a new version of Zyzzyva, 0.11.1, to fix the error reported by joemarc77 (saved searches and quizzes with Probability Order conditions are...
great news. I've just got .11.0 built under the wacky debian system for the Knoppix. I'll pull down the latest tarball and rebuild. But before I can do that, I...
... Awesome!! Thank you very much for doing this... all the work to make the Knoppix disk available, and to get Zyzzyva on there as well. I appreciate it,...
If I were designing that feature, I would have it go to a neutral screen with warnings and instructions when someone hits a variety of exit-type keys,...
... It depends upon the major purpose for using full screen Word Judge. If more people are going to use it privately on their own systems in their own homes,...
The first time I tried the full-screen mode, I misread (or misremembered -- more likely) what the preview screen said. So when I pressed Ctrl-Esc, Zyzzyva...
... Hmm, that's interesting... I'll check that out. I think it should be possible for Zyzzyva to avoid that situation. Thanks for letting me know! ... That's...
... (Snip!) ... You are right, sir! My apologies! Yesterday was also the day I presented an Albertson's coupon to the Kroger cashier. They say, as you age,...
... LOL. Yesterday I presented a Darrenkamp's coupon to the Musser's cashier. What is really sad is that a week earlier I had presented a Musser's coupon to a ...
Forgive my rather basic question: I have had good success learning high-probability sevens using zyzzyva. Having just played a game where I had LENTOID (which...
... The default is "anagram match", so click on Quiz; then type "LENTOID?" in the text box. The 7 answers come up as 6 test anagrams. Do the same text as a...
At the DO last weekend, I talked to Michael about being able to view the anagram hooks (words + ?) as you did a quiz. I think this might be what you are...
As far as I know, these can only be constructed one at a time for each high-probability rack. I have started a project of constructing flash-cards from 3x5...
Hello! I have noticed some differences between Zyzzyva's probability lists and LeXpert's. In an attempt to wean myself off of LeXpert, I have been trying to...
Here's something I noticed when I started doing the same thing in LeXpert: The top 5000 (or 1000, or 500, or whatever) is rarely exactly that length. Perhaps ...
... 5000 and ... results I ... Hopefully, Mike will come by and clarify this, but I believe he said there is currently a bug (in Zyzzyva) with the probability....
... What you're probably seeing is an effect of how the Probability Order condition is applied. I'm not very happy with how it currently works, but I'll...
... This sounds like a very interesting idea... it sounds like what you're suggesting is an Anagram Hooks quiz. Let me know if I've misunderstood, but are you...
... Oh, this is another good point! Thanks for bringing this up... another thing I dislike about how Zyzzyva handles probability searches is that it can put a...
That's what I have traditionally done with LeXpert. Once I find out what the final word in the list of 1st through nth, I create a new list: 1 thru (n*1.2)th. ...
First of all I've been using Zyzzyva now for a few months and I've found it to be an invaluable study tool for Scrabble. I recently acquired a different...
