NAME
pspresent - fullscreen PostScript presentation tool
SYNOPSIS
pspresent [options] file.ps
DESCRIPTION
pspresent is a tool that displays PostScript slides in fullscreen, for
giving presentations. Navigation is simple, and the display is double-
buffered for seamless transitions between slides. The actual rendering
is done in the background using Ghostscript.
OPTIONS
-h Show summary of options.
-o Do not override window manager. pspresent will attempt to
disable decorations and resize itself to the size of the screen,
but will otherwise co-operate with your window manager (which
may mean that it is not truly fullscreen).
-s Limit pspresent to only use the given head on a XINERAMA
display.
-O Portrait|Landscape|Upside-Down|Seascape
Override orientation.
-l Loop mode; go to start of document when at end, and vice versa.
-t[delay]
Automatic slideshow mode. The delay is optional, the default
value is 20 seconds.
-Tfile Automatic slideshow mode. The file contains one integer value
per line, corresponding to the delay between the current slide
and the next one. You must put a value for each page of your
document (count overlays, too). A value of 0 will disable the
timer for the current slide.
