Org-mode styled beamer presentations

Org-mode styled beamer presentations

Hi list,

many of you use Org-mode to create Beamer presentations.  How about the
other way round?  I wrote an Org-mode styled Beamer theme.  Please use,
enjoy and report bugs and feature requests!

Excellent!  It reminds me of brain-damage.sty ¹ :)

Here's Marcin's pdf example:

This is beautiful!  I think I'll use it sometime.

Very cute!  I like it.

Now I just need to customise it so that it matches my usual colour theme
in Emacs which has a black background!  Ahh, a perfect excuse to not get
any more work done today ;-)

thanks,
eric

Well, that was too easy... see attached for a slightly different version
of your colour theme which gives black background with yellowish-white
foreground and red highlighting...

I guess I have to get back to work now! ;-)

In fact, I have a talk to prepare for next week.  I think I'll use this
style!  The audience should be sufficiently geeky to appreciate it for
once.

Thanks again,
eric

Yep, modifying beamer color themes is usually rather easy: often you
just give a few "basic" (as in "basis" of a linear space) colors and the
rest are just linear (or even convex) combinations of those.

Great!  My audience was also quite geeky; in fact, one colleague asked
me for the source of this theme, so that he could learn to make a Vim
Beamer theme;)...
