A presentation tool for org-mode

A presentation tool for org-mode

Dear all,

Hi.

I'm writing a presentation tool for Org-mode named `org-tree-slide'.
This elisp will help you when a live editable presentation is required.
And it is also possible to access TODO items sequentially with narrowing.

Since org-tree-slide treats a tree as a single slide by org-narrow-to-subtree,
it is different from an exporter to HTML and other presentation tools customized
for good visualization. To move between slides, just type <left> and <right>.

Please find org-tree-slide and review it.

You can download from the following direct link:
https://raw.github.com/takaxp/org-tree-slide/master/org-tree-slide.el

org-tree-slide is a minor mode for Org-mode.
I recommend that these key bindings are set into your .emacs.

(global-set-key (kbd "<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-mode)
(global-set-key (kbd "S-<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-skip-done-toggle)

Preset profiles are defined in org-tree-slide.
1. `org-tree-slide-simple-profile'            ; Simple use
2. `org-tree-slide-presentation-profile'      ; Presentation use
3. `org-tree-slide-narrowing-control-profile' ; TODO Pursuit with narrowing
These functions set user variables for each using scenario.
You can find more detail in the file.

I hope this will help you and I'm waiting for your comments.

Best regards,
Takaaki Ishikawa

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,

Dear Elic,

Thank you very much!!

I took a short video to share a presentation by org-tree-slide
with your org file. Please find the following.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2440/org-tree-slide/Voila_Capture12.mov
(about 45[s]. 0-30[s]:simple profile, 30-end:presentation profile)

You can find a slide number in mode line like [1/6]. 
If you set `org-tree-slide-skip-done' is ON, it will [0/0].
Which means there is no "the next" slide.

Could you check the status? or tell me your Emacs version, OS, and Org-mode version.
I have verified org-tree-slide with Emacs23, Mac/suse, org 6.33 or higher.

Yes! I found it in this mailing list last year. It's very simple and good visual.

The org-tree-slide has not only "presentation" function but also "TODO Pursuit" like [*1].
If you use narrowing/widen frequently. This elisp is probably good for you too.
Please try M-x `org-tree-slide-narrowing-control-profile'.

Thanks! I will do that as you say :-)
