<ul>
<li>I started this software application in 2010 as a hobby project for my personal learning (reading & listening to foreign texts, saving & reviewing new words and expressions).
</li>
<li>In June 2011, I decided to publish the software in the hope that it will be useful to other language learners around the world.
</li>
<li>The software is 100 % free, open source, and in the public domain. You may do with it what you like: use it, improve it, change it, publish an improved version, even use it within a commercial product.
</li>
<li>English is not my mother tongue - so please forgive me any mistakes.
</li>
<li>A piece of software will never be without "bugs" - please inform me about any problems you will encounter. Your Feedback and ideas are always welcome.
</li>
<li>Thank you for your attention. I hope you will enjoy this application as I do every day.

<ul>
<li>
<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/lwt/" target="_blank"><i>Learning with Texts</i> (LWT)</a> is a tool for Language Learning, inspired by:
<ul>
<li>
<a href="http://referer.us/sdkrashen.com" target="_blank">Stephen Krashen's</a> principles in Second Language Acquisition,
</li>
<li>Steve Kaufmann's <a href="http://referer.us/lingq.com" target="_blank">LingQ</a> System and
</li>
<li>ideas from Khatzumoto, published at <a href="http://referer.us/www.alljapaneseallthetime.com" target="_blank">"AJATT - All Japanese All The Time"</a>.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>You define languages you want to learn and import texts you want to use for learning.
</li>
<li>While listening to the audio (optional), you read the text, save, review and test "terms" (words or multi word expressions, 2 to 9 words).
</li>
<li>In new texts all your previously saved words and expressions are displayed according to their current learn statuses, tooltips show translations and romanizations (readings), editing, changing the status, dictionary lookup, etc. is just a click away.
</li>
<li>Import of terms in TSV/CSV format, export in TSV format, and export to <a href="http://referer.us/ankisrs.net" target="_blank">Anki</a> (prepared for cloze tests), are also possible.
</li>
<li>To run LWT, you need a good web browser (Firefox, Chrome, Safari, ..., but not IE6, IE7, IE8!) and a local web server (Apache) with PHP and mySQL.
</li>
<li>An easy way to install a local web server are preconfigured packages like <a href="http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html" target="_blank">XAMPP</a> (Win, Mac, Linux), <a href="http://www.easyphp.org/" target="_blank">EasyPHP</a> (Win) or <a href="http://mamp.info/en/index.html" target="_blank">MAMP</a> (Mac).

<ul>
<li>You define languages you want to learn.
</li>
<li>You define the web dictionaries you want to use.
</li>
<li>You define how sentences and words in the language will be split up.
</li>
<li>You upload texts, and they are automatically split into sentences and words! Later re-parsing is possible.
</li>
<li>Optional: Assign the URL of an mp3 audio file of the text (Dropbox, local server, ...) in order to listen while reading the text.
</li>
<li>You read the text while listening to the audio, and you see immediately the status of every word (unknown, learning, learned, well-known, ignored).
</li>
<li>You click on words, and you use the external dictionaries to find out their meanings.
</li>
<li>You save words or expressions (2..9 words) with optional romanization (for asiatic languages), translations and example sentence, you change its status, you edit them whenever needed (like in LingQ).
</li>
<li>You test your understanding of words and expressions within or without sentence context.
</li>
<li>MCD (Massive-Context Cloze Deletion) testing, as proposed by Khatzumoto @ AJATT, built-in!
</li>
<li>See your progress on the statistics page.
</li>
<li>You may export the words and expressions and use them in Anki or other programs.
</li>
<li>You may upload words and expressions into LWT (from LingQ or other sources, CSV/TSV) - they are immediately available in all texts!
</li>
<li>The application is 100 % free, open source, and in the Public Domain. Do with it what you like!
</li>
<li>Prerequisites: a local webserver (Apache, PHP, mySQL), e.g. XAMPP, easyPHP, or MAMP.
</li>
<li>Enjoy your language learning!

<li>Step 2: Download the Universal Binary DMG Image (currently XAMPP Mac OS X 1.7.3 Universal Binary 86 MB).
</li>
<li>Step 3: Open the DMG Image and drag & drop the XAMPP folder into your Applications folder: about 12000 objects will be copied.
</li>
<li>Step 4: Go to <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/lwt" target="_blank">http://sourceforge.net/projects/lwt</a> and download the latest zip archive <i>lwt_v_x_y.zip</i>.
</li>
<li>Step 5: Open a terminal window <i>Terminal.app</i> in <i>/Applications/Utilities</i>, and execute the following command:
<ul>
<li>whoami
</li>
</ul>
Your username is being displayed. Important: Please use this name in the following instructions replacing the placeholder <i>[username]</i>!
</li>
<li>Step 6: Copy the downloaded zip archive <i>lwt_v_x_y.zip</i> into the directory <i>Sites</i> below your home directory, i.e. to <i>/Users/[username]/Sites</i>. This directory name <i>Sites</i> is sometimes renamed (localized) in the Finder to the current language you are using, e.g. in German it's called <i>Websites</i> (but only in the Finder!). Example: If your username is "john", then copy the downloaded zip archive <i>lwt_v_x_y.zip</i> into the directory <i>/Users/john/Sites</i>.
</li>
<li>Step 7: Doubleclick on the zip archive to unzip; a new folder <i>lwt_v_x_y</i> will be created in <i>/Users/[username]/Sites</i>.
</li>
<li>Step 8: Rename the new folder <i>lwt_v_x_y</i> to <i>lwt</i>. The zip archive <i>lwt_v_x_y.zip</i> may be deleted.
</li>
<li>Step 9: Go to <i>/Users/[username]/Sites/lwt</i>. Rename the file <i>connect_xampp.inc.php</i> to <i>connect.inc.php</i>.
</li>
<li>Step 10: Important step! Open a terminal window <i>Terminal.app</i> in <i>/Applications/Utilities</i>, and execute the following commands (do not change "Sites" here):
<ul>
<li>cd /Users/[username]/Sites
</li>
<li>chmod -R 777 lwt
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Step 11: Please ensure that "Web Sharing" is switched off - see "System Preferences" - "Sharing" - "Web Sharing". Open <i>XAMPP Control.app</i> in <i>/Applications/XAMPP</i>. Accept the warning. Click on Apache "Start" and MySQL "Start" (your password must be entered).
</li>
<li>Step 12: LWT can now be started: http://localhome/~[username]/lwt. If your username is "john", then the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is http://localhost/~john/lwt/. (If you don't know how to enter ~, just copy it from here and paste it.)
<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>If you want to use LWT again, just do step 11 and 12.
</li>
<li>The local webserver will be stopped by clicking on "Stop" in <i>XAMPP Control.app</i> (still running, look into your dock). You can now quit the program.
<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Uninstall: Just delete the folders <i>/Applications/XAMPP</i> and <i>/Users/[username]/Sites/lwt</i>.
</li>
<li>You have questions about XAMPP for Mac OS X: Try the <a href="http://www.apachefriends.org/f/" target="_blank">»Apache Friends Support Forum«</a>.

Download and unpack LWT in a directory of your choice.
Rename the downloaded file connect_xampp.inc.php into connect.inc.php. Open a text editor and change:<br /><br />
$server = "localhost";<br />
$userid = "root";<br />
$passwd = "";<br />
$dbname = "learning-with-texts";<br /><br />
to the information given after database creation:<br /><br />
$server = "mysql6.000webhost.com";<br />
$userid = "a2649099_lwt";<br />
$passwd = "thepassword";<br />
$dbname = "a2649099_lwt";
