• Gakusoft (King Kanji is an extremely useful flash card style program that can be used for several purposes:
  - Vocabulary training with Japanese words in Hiragana / Katakana
  - Vocabulary training with Japanese words written in Kanji
  - Training for writing Kanji
  The program is available for Windows desktop computers as well as for PALM OS and Windows CE hand-helds. This makes the program applicable in places where you don't want to fiddle around with hundreds of flash cards, e.g. in the train, waiting for the bus, during a boring meeting (ahem ...), etc. Another big advantage of King Kanji is the fact, that you can prepare your own lessons with a simple Japanese text editor that can write plain text files using EUC encoding. This way you can prepare lists of vocabulary for special occasions, e.g. the Japanese language proficiency test. A free 30 day trial version of the program can be downloaded (Mr.Joerg Richter)
