I am still a novice with ConTeXt en TeX. I have suddenly to make a presentation. I am thinking about doing this with ConTeXt. I saw the articles in the wiki. Someone some other good pointers? -- Cecil Westerhof

One more hint: Aditya and I have been working on a module for presentations. The code is not 100 % finished, but it works very well (I have been using it for my own slides the entire semester, you can see the finished pdfs here: http://www.uni-bonn.de/www/Philologie/Personal/Schmitz/Dateien.html ). There are lots of different styles and a unified interface for using them. The main focus is on easy placement of text and pictures and a nice, sober look. What it lacks right now is documentation, but we're working on it. The module is in a git repository, so if you're interested, drop me a line, and I'll give you the link. (Aditya, I hope you don't mind this plug, but we were going to release soon anyway, right?) Thomas

You mean the link which is mentioned in the wiki? http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Presentations#Additional_modules Wolfgang

Oh I didn't add that link. Xan did, possible by noticing it on github. I would not call it "The Adityam's module". After all you should get your fair share of the blame for the bugs that will inevitably be found. Aditya

And then, it would be nice to get it included into the minimals! Cheers, Peter -- Contact information: http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/
