Hi. I've been enjoying using this software. However, I have found myself needing to transfer over sets from Quizlet. This has been rather tedious, as Quizlet exports its sets as copy-and-paste TSV or CSV text, like so:

What is Zombo.com?,A satirical website launched in 1999 that mimics a loading screen
What is Xkcd?,A webcomic based on STEM humor

I have to paste this into a text file and then import it into a spreadsheet file to convert it to the required .xlsx format.

I was wondering if it would be possible to support importing text files formatted like this, as well as the ability to directly paste text in said format into a textbox to import. If possible, I would also like support for custom term separators and line delimiters as well, so that I could import sets where the answer has line breaks within it. For instance if the term-definition separator was set to ;TAB; and the card separator was ;BREAK;:

What is Zombo.com;TAB;- Created in 1999
- Parodies flash loading screens
- Originally a university inside joke;BREAK;What is Xkcd?;TAB;- Really funny
- hee hee

Thank you for your time and effort in developing this software.

Hi! It's possible to do, and this is desired functionality.
I'm swamped at work myself, but this should be pretty straightforward to implement - PRs are welcome, I'll review & merge.
