Using Windows
First, copy the Mnemosyne directory from C:\Program Files to your
USB drive, and then copy the .mnemosyne directory from inside
your home directory (usually C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>) to inside the Mnemosyne directory
on the USB drive. Alternatively, you can start mnemosyne with the -d option
to specify where .mnemosyne directory is located, e.g.
F:\Mnemosyne\mnemosyne.exe -d F:\.mnemosyne.
Using Linux
To run the Linux version from a USB key, untar the source file
mnemosyne-X.X.tgz (with X.X the version number) to the USB key.
Copy your .mnemosyne directory to the USB key as well.
Change to the directory where the USB key is mounted and type
PYTHONPATH=mnemosyne-X.X python mnemosyne-X.X/mnemosyne/pyqt_ui/mnemosyne -d .
(This assumes that the system you are working on has Python installed, as
well as all the libraries Mnemosyne requires.)
Note that if you follow the
Note that if you follow the instructions exactly, there is no need to edit any files:
"First, copy the Mnemosyne directory from C:\Program Files to your USB drive, and then copy the .mnemosyne directory from inside your home directory (usually C:\Documents and Settings\your_user_name>) to inside the Mnemosyne directory on the USB drive."

usb drive
hello!
I am trying to run AND save to the SAME usb drive.
I want to set up mnemosyne so it STAYS TOTALLY USB.
When running from usb now, it makes NEW files on every new computer.
what happens when i try to study on a new computer? where are my card files being saved?? usb or c drive? i want it ALL on usb! how do i do that?
And what the heck is a "d option"?

Hi Ed!
Mnemosyne is set to automatically save to the Application Data. To prevent this you need to change the -d flag as in mnemosyne -d C:\foo\bar. Don't confuse with the word 'flag', it is the name.
When you run Mnemosyne without the -d flag this happens:
To fix this you need to accomplish a few steps. You don't really need to understand them all. Just do it :-)
Follow this:
@echo offmnemosyne -d yourFolder
Enjoy !
Sincerly yours,
