Command line tool
If you don't want to start the GUI, you can also use JLearnIt as a command line tool. For the command line options execute java -jar JLearnIt.jar -cmd

Hidden options
You can set hidden options for JLearnIt. To do it, edit the JLearnIt.ini file located in your JLearnIt directory.

Passing arguments
You can specify the parameters when starting the application.
For example javaw -jar JLearnIt.jar -WindowLocation=50_20 -WindowSize=400_250 -SplitLocation=0 -TreeBackground= -AlwaysOnTop -ShowColumns=0_1 -StartingFile=local://vocabulary.txt will display the application in a small corner and always on top, handy when you want to have the application easily accessible.

Passing arguments for the applet
To pass the arguments in the Applet, use:<param name="param name" value="param value"> in the <applet> element.

Unix users
If you want to install JLearnIt on Linux for example, you can install in a main directory. JLearnIt tries to load first a ${HOME}/.JLearnIt.ini file for the settings, then it looks for JLearnIt.ini in the directory where JLearnIt is installed, then it uses the default jlearnit.ini included in the JLearnIt.jar file.
