Description

This Add-On Fixes the macOS bug that Anki never sees Undo when the type-in-the-answer box is focused. What this Add-On does: Empty type box + Cmd+Z → undoes the previous card (no need to click out) Text in the box + Cmd+Z → undoes typing first; another Cmd+Z undoes the card Original Bug Report for the Undo problem was at https://github.com/ankitects/anki/issues/4525
