 Flash cards are easy to make in LaTeX. This repo contains several examples using default packages.
 
-1. `adages.tex` uses the [flashcards](https://ctan.org/pkg/flashcards) package with header and footer options on the front side.
 1. `botany-flashcards.tex` uses the [flacards](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/flacards) package to create Avery 5371 compatible flash cards. (This file also changes some of the card parameters at the end.)
 1. `business_cards.tex` uses the [elzcards](https://ctan.org/pkg/elzcards) package with the business cards option.
 1. `geometry-flashcards.tex` uses the [elzcards](https://ctan.org/pkg/elzcards) package with custom macros to define the card appearance.
