WHAT IS IT?:
pylize is a Python script that generates a set of HTML files that make up an
on-screen presentation from a master file. The HTML files can be viewed with
any CSS-aware browser. The master file contains the text for all the slides and
some additional information like title, author etc. pylize can also create a
template master file for you.
DOWNLOAD:
<http://www.chrisarndt.de/software/pylize/>
INSTALL:
pylize should run on all platforms where Python does (though only tested on
Linux + Windows).
First get and install empy:
<http://www.alcyone.com/software/empy/>
Optionally, install the Python Imaging Library (PIL). It is included in most
Linux distributions now (look for a 'python-imaging' package).
<http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/index.htm>
Then for all platforms:
$ python ./install.py
(you may need to 'su' before this)
USAGE:
First you should make a new directory for your presentation:
$ mkdir new_pres
$ cd new_pres
Then create a template for your presentation master file:
$ pylize [--lang=<lang>] create # The default language is taken
wrote: "all.html" # from your environment
Then edit the master file 'all.html'. It is an ordinary HTML file with some
special meta tags. The comments in it tell you what to edit.
If you specified a URL for a logo, copy it to the right place. In most cases
this should be your presentation directory.
Now, generate your presentation:
> pylize [-v] [--lang=<lang>] # The -v flag makes pylize show
wrote: "toc.html" # the values used for the generation
wrote: "slide_01.html" # of the slides
...
wrote: "slide_nn.html"
This also copies an index and some auxiliary files to your presentation
directory. They don't get overwritten next time you run pylize, so you can
customize them to your needs.
To view your presentation load the file 'index.html' in your favourite
CSS-aware browser.
