			      FlashCards

	      A LaTeX Class for Typesetting Flash Cards.

				v1.0.1
			     30 July 2010

		 Alexander M. Budge <ambudge@mit.edu>
(bug-fixes from v1.0.0 to v1.0.1 by Matthew Vernon <matthew@debian.org>)

----------------------------------------------------------------------
			     DESCRIPTION

The FlashCards  class provides for  the typesetting of flash  cards in
LaTeX2e.  By flash card, I mean a two sided card which has a prompt or
a question  on one  side and the  response or  the answer on  the flip
(back) side.  Flash  cards come in many sizes  depending on the nature
of  the information  they contain.  In particular,  I like  using both
3x5'' (index  cards) and 2x3.5'' (business cards)  which are available
in perforated sheets suitable for printing or copying onto.
