2004-09-23 Till Tantau <tantau@users.sourceforge.net>

	Version 2.99

	Release notes:
	- This is a pretest version. Version 3.00 will be the next "real"
	  release. The present version should not be distributed as
	  bundles or suchlike.
	- You need pgf 0.63 and xcolor 2.00 for this version.
	- Quite a lot has changed. However, old presentations should
	  compile just fine, except if really wicked things have been
	  done. If a reasonably normal old presentation no longer
	  compiles, please drop me a line.
	- Some small color and spacing changes in the old themes may
	  occur. 

	
	Themes:
	- Completely new theme management.
	- Lot's of new variations of themes.
	- Font/element/layout/color themes are orthogonal and can be
	  freely combined. 
	- Old themes obsolete, but supported for compatibility.
	- Original default theme is now in
	  "beamerthemecompatibility.sty". New default is more minimalistic.

	+ Presentation themes:
	- There are now 24 ready-to-use presentation themes. 
	- Manuel Carro has send me a theme that I slightly adapted and
	  added as the Madrid theme.

	+ Layout and element Themes:
	- There are 9 different layouts themes, including three new ones
	  that were not available in the previous version.
	- There are 4 different element themes (which dictate things like
	  how items are typeset).

	+ Color themes:
	- There are 10 color themes, including a yellow-on-blue theme.
	- The seahorse and rose theme allow you to change the colors of
	  headlines and footlines easily to much less "aggressive"
	  versions.  
	- You can now dictate the color of every minute detail of a
	  presentation individually, (including math!).

	+ Font themes:
	- 6 font themes. Change the fonts of titles to, say, small caps
	  just by using the smallcaps theme; no need to meddle with
	  templates. 
	- Just like colors, you can individually change all fonts in
	  minute detail without touching any templates.

	
	Documentation:
	- Split documentation into multiple files.
	- Reorganized and reworked large parts of the documention.
	- Added a small tutorial to help new users.
	- Extracted all "guidelines" and "recommendations" and put them in
	  a "guidelines" section. Also added lots of guidelines on fonts.
	- Added an index (though it's pretty poor, still).

	
	Solutions:
	- Added a solutions directory.
	  It contains ready-to-use solutions for common problems (like
	  a template for a conference talk).
	- Help appreciated (see the documentation).

	
	Added:
	- Added frame environment (finally!).
	- Added the dot notation to overlay specifications. If a dot is
	  used instead of a plus, the beamerpauses counter is not
	  incremented. 
	- Added xmpmulti.sty. Very useful for including Multi Metapost
	  graphics. 
	- Added some functionality to \onslide to get it more in sync with
	  ha-prosper. 
	- Made \beamerdefaultoverlayspecification work also outside
	  frames. 
	- Added new version of beamer.el by Thomas Baumann.
	- \footnote now takes an overlay specification.
	- Added beamercolorbox environment.
	- Characters like : may now be active (nice for french
	  style). Only exceptions are < and >.
	- Added a note on how to use msc.sty with beamer.
	- TOCs in sidebar will now do line breaking (finally!).
	- Powerful object-oriented new font management.
	- Powerful object-oriented new color management.
	- \tableofcontents now has more options for showing/not showing
	  entries.
	- Same is true for the toc in sidebars.
	- Added \keywords command (like \subject).
	- Added a patch to make beamer work together with musixtex. \pause
	  will be redeclared inside music environments.
	- Added \insert's for inserting the start and end pages of the
	  current frame, subsection, section, part, presentation, appendix.

	Changed:
	- Reordered directories.
	- beamerboxesrounded now works differently. color schemes no
	  longer needed.
	- Option class=xxxx onsolete. Use document class xxxx directly
	  instead and load new style beamerarticle.
	- Cleaned up lot's of internals.
	- Slight changes to vertical spacing.
	- slidestop is now called "t" and slidescentered is called "c".
	- \beamersetleftmargin and \beamersetrightmargin obsolete. Use
	  \setbeamersize instead.
	- Old themes are now mapped to new internal mechanisms. Slight
	  color and vertical spacing changes may occur.
	
	Bugfixes:
	- Fixed incompatibility with czech.sty.
	- Fixed some spacing problems with \label.
	- Fixed bug that could cause endless loop if more than two pages
	  resulted from an allowframebreaks.
	- Fixed bug that caused incorrect counter resets in conjunction
	  with allowframebreaks.
	- Fixed bug that caused footnotes of suppressed frames to spill
	  over to the next frame.
	- Fixed bug with \AtBeginSection + \lecture + \mode*
	- Fixed \label bug in article mode in conjunction with amstex

	  \everymath.

	- Added \againframe command for showing a frame again later on
	  (very useful!). 
	- Added \includeonlyframe command for typesetting only specific
	  frames. 
	- Added \AtBeginSection, \AtBeginSubsection, and \AtBeginPart
	  commands (very useful!).
	- Added \visible command (opposite of \invisible).
	- Added verse, quotation, and quote environments.
	- Added abstract environment (not very useful in my opinion).
	- Added colored option to \defverbatim for use with lstlisting.
	- Added grid density option to grid background.
	- Added professionalfont option.
	- Added automatic support of serif math minion fonts.
	- Added option to \pause command to pause only from a specific

	- Includes enumerate.sty by default and allows one to use its
	  functionality in beamer.
	- Added dark and tab options to beamerthemesidebar. Other sidebar
	  themes no longer needed.
	- Made \note work also inside frames.
	- Added templates for notes.
	- Added notes=onlyframeswithnotes option for generating only
	  frames that contain a note.
	- Added options to all \insertshortxxx commands.
	- Added option for passing arguments to color, xcolor, pgf, and
	  hyperref.
	- Added \action and actionenv environments.
	- Added the concept of actions to overlay specifications. For example,
	  \item<alert@2> will alert the item on the second slide and
	  \item<2-| alert@2> will furthermore have the item covered before
	  that.  
	- Added <> option to \newcommand and \newenvironment to make the
	  defined commands overlay-specification aware.
	- \only and \alt will now also accept an overlay specification
	  "at the end".
	- Block environments now accept overlay specification also before
	  the argument.
	- Added \mode command
	- Added beamerbasearticle.sty -> makes nearly all beamer commands
	  available in article mode in a sensible way.
	- Added mode specifications to \section and \subsection commands
	  (useful for the article version).
	- Started adding some templates for rendering frames in article mode.
	- Added \lecture command and \includeonlylecture (useful for
	  lecture notes).  
	- Added a containsverbatim option to the \frame command. Should be
	  used instead of the old \frame<all:1> (which is, however, still
	  supported). 
	- Made \includegraphics, \pgfimage, and \pgfuseimage
	  overlay-specification-aware. (useful for pseudo-animations)
	
	Changed:
	- Every frame is now put into a box internally. Slides will never
	  be split over two pages.
	- \pause commands now transcends blocks (very useful, but not
	  compatible!) 
	- Balls are now also used for enumerations, not just for itemize
	  in shadow theme. Use \beamertemplateenumeratealpha to get old
	  behaviour. 
	- Changed syntax of alert and structure templates.
	- Reworked internals of overlay management. Should produce
	  slightly shorter files.
	- Changed file names of .jpg and .png images to start with "beamer-"
	  to avoid name clashes.
	- Renamed \original to \beameroriginal because of clash with
	  lucidia font styles.
	- "Streamlined" themes to use the same basic templates.
	- \noteitems replaced by \note[enumerate].
	- \nameslide command is now obsolete. Use the label= option
	  instead.
	- Removed notesonly option. Use notes=only.
	- Themes beamerthemesidebartab, beamerthemesidebardark, and
	  beamerthemesidebardarktab are now obsolete. Use
	  beamerthesesidebar will appropriate options instead.
	- Theme beamerthemetreebars obsolete. Use beamerthemetree with
          option bars instead.
	- Removed compressnotes option. Use \beamertemplatenotecompress
	  instead. 
	
	Removed:
	- Removed pauses environment (no longer needed).
	- Improved pgf makes \pgfonly superfluous. Use \only instead.
	- Removed reproducable .pdf example files from repository for
	  faster cvs checkout/checkin.
	- Removed \invisibleon command (was superfluous anyway).
	- Removed \mixinon command (was not very useful and clashes with
	  new \pause command; use \opaqueness instead).
	- Removed \newoverlaycommand and \renewoverlaycommand. Can be
	  better implemented using \newcommand<>.
	- Removed \article, \presentation, and \common commands (still
	  quietly tolerated). Should be replaced by \mode<article>,
	  \mode<presentation>, and \mode<all>. 
	- Removed beamer/lyx/doc. Documentation is now incorporated in
	  the main user's guide.
	
	LyX:
	- Added a big example file beamerlyxexample1.lyx.

	- Changed beamer.layout to use new command \column. Old environment
 	  no longer supported in lyx.

	  the previous frame. EndFrame is only needed before the end of
	  the document, before the appendix, and before "out-of-frame"
	  material. 
	- Added TitleGraphic command.

	  alignments, both for completely invisible covered and
	  transparent covered text.

	  to the color scheme.
	- Added versioning system for head and toc entries. Will no longer
	  do weird things when left over files from an old version are
	  encountered. (Makes updating a lot easier.)

	  changes. Still no real documentation.
