.SH NAME
pspresent \- fullscreen PostScript presentation tool
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B pspresent
.RI [ options ] " file.ps"
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B 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.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-h
Show summary of options.
.TP
.B \-o
Do not override window manager.
.B 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).
.TP
.B \-s

.B pspresent
to only use the given head on a XINERAMA display.
.TP
.BI "\-O " Portrait | Landscape | Upside-Down | Seascape

.BI "\-t"[delay]
Automatic slideshow mode. The
.I delay
is optional, the default value is 20 seconds.
.TP
.BI "\-T"file
Automatic slideshow mode. The
.I 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.
.SH COMMANDS
