Vroom - Slide Shows in Vim
> vim slides.vroom # Write Some Slides
> vroom --vroom # Show Your Slides
Ever given a Slide Show and needed to switch over to the shell?
Now you don't ever have to switch again. You're already there.
Vroom lets you create your slides in a single file using a Wiki-like style, much like Spork and Sporx do. The difference is that your slides don't compile to HTML or JavaScript or XUL. They get turned into a set of files in a directory called slides.
The slides are named in alpha order. That means you can bring them all into a Vim session with the command: vim *.
Vroom creates a file called slides/.vimrc with many helpful key mappings for navigating a slideshow. See "KEY MAPPINGS" below.
Vroom takes advantage of Vim's syntax highlighting. It also lets you run slides that contain code.
Since Vim is an editor, you can change your slides during the show.
Vroom has a few command line options:
Just running vroom will compiles 'slides.vroom' into slide files.
Compile and start vim show.
Clean up all the compiled output files.
Here is an example slides.vroom:
---- config
title: My Spiffy Slideshow
height: 84
width: 20
---- center
My Presentation
by Ingy

== Stuff I care about:
* Foo
+* Bar
+* Baz
---- perl
use Vroom;
print "Hello World";
---- center
THE END
Advance one slide
Go back one slide
Run current slide as Perl
Quit Vroom
