Where are the English meanings?
To get English meanings you must install a dictionary file. For Japanese to English, install Jim Breen's edict file found
at:
http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/edict.html
After downloading the file, uncompress it and place the file "edict" in
"~/Library/Kanji Crammer". That is in the "Kanji Crammer"
folder in the Library folder of your home directory.
For Chinese to English, install the cedict file found
at:
http://www.mandarintools.com/cedict.html
Download the utf-8 version, place the file "cedict_ts.u8" in
"~/Library/Kanji Crammer". That is in the "Kanji Crammer"
folder in the Library folder of your home directory.

It is easy to forget to set the dictionary file for the language
you are studying. Go to the preferences and choose the dictionary file needed. Remember that "edict" is for Japanese,
"cedict" is for Chinese and "New Oxford" is for English.

The dictionary file is only loaded on application startup or when you have dismissed the preferences window.
Where is the audio?
Kanji Crammer does not come with audio. You need to either record a person's voice or download audio from the Internet.
Kanji Crammer comes with decks for some audio files you can find on the Internet.
Where's my file?
