Thanks David for sharing. However I would like to point out that some of the contents of your files are a bit outdated. E.g. there's no "shrinking factor" anymore, there's already support for animations and Joris is currently working on the beamer style (commits of the last couple of days). For instance you can now set the page size to stuff like 4:3, 16:9, etc. There are probably many more changes to come so stay tuned. ;)

Hi,

do you have some beamer style file to show me ? My point is : with
latex, when you compile your beamer.tex file you have some icons on
tyhe right or on the bottom of the page. Do we get this with Texmacs ?

Thank you.

Hi Marc:

Attached is a TeXmacs file as an example in the "beamer" style. Also attached is an exported PDF file produced using TeXmacs that is also of the "presentation" style. This file is an article I wrote that summarizes the issues I encountered involving using TeXmacs for creating presentations. It also covers some general presentation technical issues.

Note that it does not appear possible to export a TeXmacs presentation in "beamer" style to PDF from TeXmacs. Each slide has to be individually exported then merged outside of TeXmacs using Adobe Acrobat or some other utility for that purpose. From my point of view the "beamer" style appears to be concatenated TeXmacs pages in the form of slides. These pages behave as independent documents in some ways, but contained as one file.

The TeXmacs "beamer" style has some really nice features and works well if you are in an environment either where you use TeXmacs as a main tool, or are involved in a group where TeXmacs is the format of choice. Otherwise portability may become an issue. I found that using TeXmacs to create presentations with the goal of PDF as a end format provides the best of both worlds.

I encourage any comments or feedback on the attachments. Please note that the content of the Texmacs beamer file was not well-formatted for presentations because I did not have the time. Hence, some slides are vertically too long. You would want to split this content into more pages in an actual presentation. So for those that are annoyed by this, I am aware of this defect.

Hope this helps.
