+ TeXPower bundle
+ Creating dynamic online presentations with LaTeX
+
+ version (v0.2)
+ This readme file last changed on April 8th, 2005
+
+Developers: Stephan Lehmke <mailto:Stephan.Lehmke@cs.uni-dortmund.de>

+
+======================================================================
+
+ TeXPower is a bundle of packages intended to provide
+ an `all-inclusive' environment for designing pdf
+ `screen presentations' to be viewed with Adobe Acrobat[tm]
+ reader in full-screen mode, especially for projecting
+ `online' with a video beamer.
+
+ The features provided include:
+
+ * `dynamic' features like incremental building of pages,
+ animated diagrams and such.
+
+ * support for `navigation panels'
+
+ * support for page backgrounds
+
+ * advanced color management (`logical markup' for colors supplying
+ `color sets' for different background colors, `dimming' and inverting
+ of colors etc.) and color highlighting.
+
+ * advanced font configuration.
+
+======================================================================
+
+The TeXPower project homepage is located at SourceForge:
+
+ <http://texpower.sourceforge.net/>
+
+and contains amongst other precompiled docs/examples/demos.
+
+The mailing list is also located at SourceForge:
+
+ <http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/texpower-users>
+

+Generated files:
+================
+
+texpower.sty (from texpower.dtx)
+
+ Implements commands for presentation effects. This includes
+ * color management and highlighting;
+ * incremental displaying of pages;
+ * navigation helpers;
+ * setting page backgrounds and `panels'.
+
+ The code should work with all ways of PDF creation.

+
+ Configuration files for texpower.sty.
+
+powersem.cls (from powersem.dtx)
+
+ A wrapper for seminar which sets up everything for dynamic
+ presentations. For this alpha version, it doesn't do much
+ more than load seminar.cls and do some bug fixes.
+
+ \documentclass{powersem} should be used as a replacement for
+ \documentclass{seminar}. powersem loads seminar and passes all
+ options to seminar.
+
+tplists.sty (from tplists.dtx)
+
+ This package provides easy dynamic lists.
+
+automata.sty (from texpower-addons.dtx)

+ them with TeXPower.
+ Only DFA and Mealy automata are supported so far.
+
+
+fixseminar.sty (from texpower-addons.dtx)
+
+ A small fix to seminar in conjunction with pdf generation
+ (respect magnification in page dimensions setting).
+

+
+ A replacement for ``pstcol.sty'' with some quirks corrected.
+
+
+tpsem-a4.sty (from texpower-addons.dtx)
+
+ An LaTeX2e-fied sem-a4.sty (part of seminar).
+

+
+ Configuration used in __TPpreamble.tex and the FAQ/manual.
+

+Beware. This is work in progress. Use only if you know what you're
+doing. During the subsequent error correction and extension of the
+functionality, the syntax and implementation of the macros are liable
+to change.
+
+Even though we are using dtx-files, they are still not fully
+documented dtx files.
