The +canonical location would be $TEXMF/tex/context/third, where you can create a +subdiretory "presentations" to keep everything together. On most systems, you +will have to run texhash after installing new packages. If you want to test the +module before actually installing it, just leave everything in the original +directory and typeset the demo file. + + +Use +--- + +A full manual is included, Here is a very short version for the impatient: + +To use the module, include this line in your file: + +\usemodule[taspresent] +[style=doubleframe,font=Helvetica,size=17pt,stylecolor=blue,stylebottom=sqaure] + +For the "style" parameter, there are currently sixteen options: + +blackblue +bluegray +bluestripe +darkshade +doubleframe +doubleshade +embossed +graybeams +graysquare +greenblue +horizontalblue +lightblue +narrowstripe +quadblue +rainbowstripe +redframe + +This will modify the background of your slides and the placement of certain +elements. + +For the "font" parameter, there are currently five options: + +LatinModern [typesets in LatinModern Serif] +LatinModernSans [typesets in LatinModern Sans] +Times [the free clone of TimesNew Roman] +Helvetica [the free clone of Helvetica] +Pagella [the tex-gyre clone of Palatino; only if you have the tex-gyre + fonts installed] +User [this does not set a font; provide your own definitions] + +If you want to use your own typescripts, remember to use the bodyfont at +\Normalsize like so: + +\usetypescriptfile[type-mytypescript] +\usetypescript[myfont][ec] +\setupbodyfont[MyFont,\Normalsize] + +And of course, invoke the typescript after the \usemodule part! + +The "size" can be set to 16pt, 17pt, 18pt, 19pt, 20pt, or 21pt ; the default is +17pt for text and 27pt for titles. + +The easiest way to see what the module does and which macros it provides is +looking at (and typesetting) the included file "demo.tex" with different +options. If you want to know more about the way in which the module is set up, +typeset the source of the different source files with the command texmfstart +texexec --module. The source is annotated, so you should be able to see how it +works even if you don't have too much experience with ConTeXt. + +Defining your own styles is easy: have a look at the style files which are +included. Certain macros have to be defined. Roll your own definitions for +these macros and for the background, write them into a file whatever.tex and +use this new style by setting it as the value to the "style" key like so: +\usemodule[taspresent][font=Times,size=17pt,style=whatever] + + +Revision History +---------------- + +2007-08-08 +- Added some new styles; +- added the \setvariables and \Maketitle macros; +- added the "stylecolor" and "stylebottom" options; +- arrows and circles for vertical pictures. + +2007-07-24 +- Added new commands for arrows and circles in vertical pictures; +- made syntax for picture placement more conform to ConTeXt use; +- easier syntax for adding custom styles (suggestion by Peter Münster). + +2007-07-22 +Initial release |
