[Pmwiki-users] Presentation skin and recipe

[John Rankin]

Interested authors will find a skin and recipe for PmWiki-based 
presentations at:
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/WikiPresentations

The idea is to prepare, project and publish presentation slides 
using a web browser, rather than (say) Microsoft Powerpoint or 
Apple Keynote. The intention is that if you turn off the 
address, bookmark and status bars in your browser, and either 
hide or move your tool bar to the right hand screen edge, it 
projects nicely at 800x600 screen resolution. Page size can 
be adjusted using a style sheet. Actual results will depend
on the browser and operating system used.

The recipe extends the wiki trail capabilities to provide 
slide navigation automatically as part of the template.
The author sets up a trail page listing the slides, this
is the group's $DefaultPage by default.

The above page includes a sample screen shot.

Questions and comments welcome.

I had one question for Pm:
The script uses =notes start of line markup to designate 
speaker notes -- excluded from the slide, included in print 
/ publish /preview views, styled to separate them from the 
body copy.

But I have a feeling that '=keyword stuff' start of line 
markup may be deprecated in PmWiki version 2. Is this so 
and if so what should I be using?
