Re: A presentation tool for org-mode

[Eric Schulte <eric.schulte@gmx.com>]

Hi Takaaki,

This looks like a fun presentation option.

I just tried out org tree slide and while it appeared to launch
successfully, highlighted the title of my first subtree, and presented
me with a nice /slide/ effect, I was unable to move on from the first
headline in my Org-mode file.  I was using this file [1].  It is
possible that this is not the file structure expected by org-tree-slide?

I wonder if you are familiar with epresent [2].  It is very similar to
org-tree-slide as they are both minimal presentation frameworks build to
run off of Org-mode documents from within Emacs.

If you find time it would be great to add mention of org-tree-slide on
the relevant worg page [3], so that future Orgers looking for
presentation options won't miss this tool.

Thanks for sharing,
