1 sent is a simple plaintext presentation tool. 2 3 sent does not need latex, libreoffice or any other fancy file format, it uses 4 plaintext files to describe the slides and can include images via farbfeld. 5 Every paragraph represents a slide in the presentation. 6 7 The presentation is displayed in a simple X11 window. The content of each slide 8 is automatically scaled to fit the window and centered so you also don't have to 9 worry about alignment. Instead you can really concentrate on the content. 10 11 12 Dependencies 13 14 You need Xlib and Xft to build sent and the farbfeld[0] tools installed to use 15 images in your presentations. 16 17 Demo 18 19 To get a little demo, just type 20 21 make && ./sent example 22 23 You can navigate with the arrow keys and quit with `q`. 24 25 26 Usage 27 28 sent [FILE] 29 30 If FILE is omitted or equals `-`, stdin will be read. Produce image slides by 31 prepending a `@` in front of the filename as a single paragraph. Lines starting 32 with `#` will be ignored. A `\` at the beginning of the line escapes `@` and 33 `#`. A presentation file could look like this: 34 35 sent 36 37 @nyan.png 38 39 depends on 40 - Xlib 41 - Xft 42 - farbfeld 43 44 sent FILENAME 45 one slide per paragraph 46 # This is a comment and will not be part of the presentation 47 \# This and the next line start with backslashes 48 49 \@FILE.png 50 51 thanks / questions? 52 53 54 Development 55 56 sent is developed at http://tools.suckless.org/sent 57 58 59 0: http://tools.suckless.org/farbfeld/
