LLMs made me an addon to add subdecks

Anki Add-ons
1

Previously when on SM2/v2/v3,
i use an addon that modify the interval, hope to also have “priority” as in supermemo.

seems not very working when anki updates (true for foss,
an update to fix a hole here make new holes there).

Due to self server and IOE (native) i am now updated,
at 23.10+FSRS.

others suggest me to tag the cards by lv1a, b, c;
lv2a, b, c etc and put on different decks that have different options,
each with different retention %.

making several “options” is easy,
but adding 3 - 6 subdecks is a time consuming work.

now we got LLMs,
i just asked GPT o1-preview (a GPT4?) to write me one.

it could add the subdecks easily. as a menu command.

Since i only have college 1 Sem (i.e. 6mo?) ANSI C/visual basic level,
i am dual licensing it (commercial and foss… GPL3?) and put the open source version here below.

hope someone may review it and see if the code is indeep danger,
pls alert me, thanks.

others may tweak it for their own use,
or, indeep could ask LLMs to do whatever you want and share like me too.

Richard stallman: everyone SHOULD be a programmer
Wang: everyone is NOW a programmer.

I beg you guys give LLMs a chance! To write addons!

I put in another post to make it look cleaner
