NAME sent -- simple plaintext presentation tool SYNOPSIS sent [-v] [file] DESCRIPTION sent is a simple plain text presentation tool for X. sent does not need La- TeX, LibreOffice or any other fancy file format. Instead, sent reads plain text describing the slides. sent can also draw images. Every paragraph represents a slide in the presentation. Especially for pre- sentations using the Takahashi method this is very nice and allows you to write the presentation for a quick lightning talk within a few minutes. OPTIONS -v Print version information to stdout and exit. USAGE Mouse commands Button1 | Button5 Go to next slide, if existent. Button3 | Button4 Go to previous slide, if existent. Keyboard commands Escape | q Quit. r Reload the slides. Only works on file input. Right | Return | Space | l | j | Down | Next | n Go to next slide, if existent. Left | Backspace | h | k | Up | Prior | p Go to previous slide, if existent. FORMAT The presentation file is made up of at least one paragraph, with an empty line separating two slides. Each input line is interpreted literally, ex- cept from control characters at the beginning of lines described as fol- lows: @ Create individual slide containing the image pointed to by the filename following the @. # Ignore this input line. \ Create input line using the characters following the \ without in- terpreting them. CUSTOMIZATION sent can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple. SEE ALSO 2ff(1) 2016-08-12 SENT(1)
