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.

COMMANDS

       The following keys can be used from within pspresent  to  navigate  the
       slides.   If Shift is depressed, then only the last page of each series
       of overlays is shown (an overlay set is identified as a series of pages
       with the same logical page number).
