# spotlight2kvtml(1)

convert a Spotlight Online vocabulary list to a KVocTrain data file

## NAME

spotlight2kvtml - convert a Spotlight Online vocabulary list to a KVocTrain data file

## SYNOPSIS

**spotlight2kvtml** *spotfile month year*

## DESCRIPTION

**spotlight2kvtml** is used to convert a Spotlight Online vocabulary list to a KVocTrain data file (\*.kvtml).

The given vocabulary list (*spotfile*) must be in plain text format (i.e., you will need to convert the downloaded RTF or Word document into a plain text file).  The name of the new KVocTrain data file will be derived from the given *spotfile*.

The given month and year will be used in the title and lesson names in the new KVocTrain data file.

Note that Spotlight Online changes its vocabulary list format from time to time, so spotlight2kvtml might be out of date and might not behave correctly.

This utility is part of the official KDE edutainment module.
