( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Personally, I'm very fond of spod5, which takes plain pod and converts it into an S5 slideshow, which can easily be displayed through IE or FireFox (press F11 for full-screen/kiosk mode). There are some other S5 modules that also produce these slideshows.

I hacked spod5 a bit to include line numbers, but I keep my presentations simple. The upside of pod/S5 is that you can edit it at the last minute and restyle it easily or run it through babelfish. The downside is that S5 doesn't support any fancy page transitions and that you have to do all the graphics stuff in an external program.

Update: One more kickass thing that xdg's post here reminded me of is that you get font resizing for free with the browser. If the back row complains they can't read your code, just hit CTRL+ and the font will increase, rewrap and hopefully still fit on your slide...

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
