I've seen this but I never tried it.

I think that an issue that some have in the age of Daf Yomi is that they can "peruse" the Gemara, not really understanding the significance of every word. This is a great way to make sure that your really know what every single word means.

Try it! Print the last page or just scribble it on a post-it. You might even find a code card in a local shul or he will be happy to send some. Even when you are not actively doing it, you will end up munning yourself to know where the fregt the gemora and enfert the gemora really go.

Not everyone needs the code card to get clarity. But if you CAN'T fill out the code card, you don't have clarity.

Different strokes for different folks. This is way too tedious for me - I'd lose my cheshek getting bogged down in the process.

What do you write when there are nested steps? (i.e. a  question then another question then an answer to second question then an answer to first question). I'm assuming its not trying to do anything about that.

 I vaguely remember seeing this. I'm not sure where.

A friend of mine has developed a program to help people gain clarity in gemora learning:
I worked on a sefer like this.
R' Berkovits says the system assumes kids will kind of pick this up intuitively (he is kind of skeptical that this is the case). He says when your kids start learning Gemara, train them to pick up on the steps. This is a kasha, this is a teretz, how does the teretz answer the kasha? How does the raya prove the statement? A talmid of his started "Lamdeni" to help kids do this stuff.

Full copy of his shiur on this subject available by PM.

You can call/text the phone number on the flyer/card. He is very passionate about it, and would love to talk about it.
