I am not sure how to get the Worg automatic publishing mode to not do this... hopefully somebody else can answer and/or fix the link in that footnote. In the meantime, attached is the file =presentation.org=.

The above list could be numbered or any other type of list and may include sub-lists. ** A more complex slide This slide illustrates the use of Beamer blocks. The following text, with its own headline, is displayed in a block: *** Org mode increases productivity :B_theorem: :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_env: theorem :END: - org mode means not having to remember \LaTeX commands. - it is based on ascii text which is inherently portable. - Emacs! \hfill \(\qed\) ** Two columns *** A block :B_ignoreheading:BMCOL: :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_env: ignoreheading :BEAMER_col: 0.4 :END: - this slide consists of two columns - the first (left) column has no heading and consists of text - the second (right) column has an image and is enclosed in an @example@ block *** A screenshot :BMCOL:B_example: :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_col: 0.6 :BEAMER_env: example :END: #+ATTR_LATEX: width=\textwidth [[file:../../images/org-beamer/a-simple-slide.png]] * Conclusions ** Summary - org is an incredible tool for time management - @but@ it is also excellent for writing and for preparing presentations - Beamer is a very powerful \LaTeX{} package for presentations - the combination is unbeatable! --Multipart_Fri_Oct__1_20:54:51_2010-1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII -- Eric S Fraga GnuPG: 8F5C 279D 3907 E14A 5C29 570D C891 93D8 FFFC F67D --Multipart_Fri_Oct__1_20:54:51_2010-1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
