pspresent - fullscreen PostScript presentation tool SYNOPSIS
pspresent [options] file.ps DESCRIPTION
pspresent is a tool that displays PostScript slides in fullscreen, for giving presentations. Navigation is simple, and the display is dou- ble-buffered for seamless transitions between slides. The actual rendering is done in the background using Ghostscript. OPTIONS
-h Show summary of options. -o Do not override window manager. pspresent will attempt to disable decorations and resize itself to the size of the screen, but will otherwise co-operate with your window manager (which may mean that it is not truly fullscreen). -s Limit pspresent to only use the given head on a XINERAMA display. -O Portrait|Landscape|Upside-Down|Seascape Override orientation. -l Loop mode; go to start of document when at end, and vice versa. -t[delay] Automatic slideshow mode. The delay is optional, the default value is 20 seconds. -Tfile Automatic slideshow mode. The file contains one integer value per line, corresponding to the delay between the current slide and the next one. You must put a value for each page of your document (count overlays, too). A value of 0 will disable the timer for the current slide. COMMANDS
The following keys can be used from within pspresent to navigate the slides. If Shift is depressed, then only the last page of each series of overlays is shown (an overlay set is identified as a series of pages with the same logical page number). spacebar page down right arrow down arrow Move to the next slide. If Shift is depressed, skips overlays. backspace page up left arrow up arrow Move to the previous slide. If Shift is depressed, skips overlays. home Warp to the start of the presentation. end Warp to the end of the preesentation. number enter Warp to slide number. escape q Quit the program. The mouse buttons can also be used to navigate through a presentation. left button Move to the next slide. middle button Quit the program. right button Move to the previous slide. If Shift is used together together with the navigation keys or buttons, then only the last page of each series of overlays is shown (an overlay set is identified as a series of pages with the same logical page number).

Spork - Slide Presentations (Only Really Kwiki) SYNOPSIS
mkdir my-slideshow cd my-slideshow spork -new vim Spork.slides vim config.yaml spork -make spork -start DESCRIPTION
Spork lets you create HTML slideshow presentations easily. It comes with a sample slideshow. All you need is a text editor, a browser and a topic. Spork allows you create an entire slideshow by editing a single file called "Spork.slides" (by default). Each slide is created using a minimal markup language similar to the syntax used in Kwiki wikis. MARKUP SYNTAX
NOTE: The current syntax has changed in a non-backwards-compatible way as of release 0.16. This was done to keep pace with current Kwiki formatting rules. The main change is the markup for images. Please update old slideshows accordingly. Slides Slides are separated by lines consisting entirely of four or more dashes. Each slide consists of text and markup. This section describes each of the markup units. Any slide can be made to be multipart by putting a '+' at the beginning of a line where you want to break it. Each subpart will be cumulative to that point. Headings A heading is a line starting with 1-6 equals signs followed by a space followed by the heading text. The number of equals signs corresponds to the level of the heading. === A Level Three Heading Paragraphs Paragraphs are just paragraphs. They end with a blank line. This is my paragraph of something that I wanted to show you. This paragraph is now ending. Preformatted Text Preformatted text, like program source code for instance, is indicated by indenting it. My code: sub greet { print "Hello there "; } Pretty Print You can markup a section of your source code with various colors and highlights. In this example we make the word "greet" display green and the word "Hello" display red and underline the quoted string. .pretty. sub greet { # GGGGG print "Hello there "; # _______________ # RRRRR } .pretty. Coming soon. Unordered List Use asterisks to mark bullet points. The number of asterisks indicates the nesting level. * Point One ** Point One A ** Point One B * Point Two * Point Three Ordered List Same as unordered lists except use zeroes to mark bullet points. Ordered and unordered lists can be intermingled. 0 Point One ** Point One A ** Point One B 0 Point Two 0 Point Three Bold Text Sourround one or more words with asterisks to make the text bold. This is *bold text* example. Italic Text Sourround one or more words with slashes to make the text italicized. This is /italic text/ example. Underlined Text Sourround one or more words with underscores to make the text underlined. This is _underlined text_ example. Teletyped Text Sourround one or more words with pipes to make the text appear in a fixed width font. This is |fixed width font| example. Images Each slide can display an image. {image: http://www.example.com/images/xyz123.png} This will download a copy of the image if it hasn't been downloaded yet. That way you can view your slides offline. If more than one image is encoded in a slide, Spork takes the last one. This is useful for a multipart slide where you want the image to change. Just put this image tag in the correct subpart. Files You can create a link to a local file. When clicked the file should appear in a new browser window. {file: mydir/myfile.txt} The "file_base" configuration setting will be prepended to relative paths. CONFIGURATION
Spork slideshows can be configured in three different ways. The first way is with the local "config.yaml" created by "spork -new". The second way is through a global configuration file called "~/.sporkrc/config.yaml". Any settings in the local file will override settings in the global file. The third way is to put YAML sections directly in your slides file. You can put a YAML section anywhere in the file that a slide would go, and you can have more than one section. In fact, you could change the configuration for each slide by putting a YAML section before each slide. Any settings in these sections will override the setting that came from anywhere else. See Spork::Config for more information. CUSTOMIZATION
You can easily extend and customize Spork by writing subclasses and putting them in the configuration or by fiddling with the template files. This version uses Template Toolkit templates by default. HTML::Mason support is being developed by Dave Rolsky. SEE ALSO
