It is a python program that uses OpenGL to do cool transitions (and other eye candy) on PDFs to be used in presentations. You should be able to yum it down (for the power users who use Fedora).
Given a presentation file called talk.pdf you can run it by typing at the command line:
- Code: Select all
keyjnote.py talk.pdf
To set a transition, use the -t switch.
- Code: Select all
keyjnote.py -t PageTurn talk.pdf
To list the available transitions, use the -l switch
- Code: Select all
keyjnote.py -l
To load the slides into RAM rather disk (make sure you have lots of RAM), use:
- Code: Select all
keyjnote.py -c memory talk.pdf
You will need to apply the following patch file in order to get it working on the latest and greatest linux of all (Fedora) and other inferior products (Ubuntu).
- Code: Select all
patch /usr/bin/keyjnote.py keyjnote.patch
Enjoy!!
