Years ago, before CDs and a whole lot of other things had been
invented, I owned a program called Vocabulary Management System. It
was really simple to operate and I found it very useful. I would
enter a word in one language and the translation of that word in
another language, and repeat this process until I had a customised
list of vocabulary items. I could then instruct the software to give
me a quiz. I could make the lists as short or as long as I liked.

It was so simple but I loved it. I lost it years ago, but even if I
still had it I would not be able to use it with Windows XP. This
program dates back to DOS days.

Does anyone know if there is a similar program out there? I do not
want some fandangled thing with pretty pictures that appeals to
people who are not serious about working at acquiring a language.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
Eugene
