Features

Syntax

  • Each paragraph marks a slide.
  • Text is just starts at the beginning of a line.
  • If the first character is a / a control sequence is expected, except if another /, then it's just a / as text:
    • # -> Slide title, required.
    • @ -> Path to image, optional. A slide shows either an image or text.
    • _ -> Background color, between 0 and 255.
    • ^ -> Foreground color, between 0 and 255.
    • ! -> Comment, is parsed but ignored for now.
  • The colors are ignored for images, since images are in ascii and need a black background.

See example.skt.

Images

This program supports the following file types:

  • .jpg
  • .png
