presenting.vim is a vim plugin that turns your markup into presentable slides (in vim).

It is a clone of present.vim which is a clone of presen.vim. In contrast to its predecessors, presenting.vim:

• is documented

Great, hey?

Demonstrations

Here is what the examples/PresentingDemo.rst file looks like when presented.

Markdown files are rendered a bit more fancifully. Be sure to read the help file. Here is the examples/PresentingDemo.markdown being presented.

Installation

Use pathogen or vundle to install presenting.vim.

Configuration

Simply write your presentation in your favorite markup language. Every slide is separated by a markup language specific marker.

These can be overridden or extended by setting b:presenting_slide_separator for your preferred filetype in your .vimrc. For example, set the .rst slide separator to ~~~~ via:

au FileType rst let b:presenting_slide_separator = '\v(^|\n)\~{4,}'

Usage

When you want to start presenting, execute

:PresentingStart

It is possible to have multiple presentations running at the same time. Just run the command in each source document, and each slide show will be displayed in its own tab.

Once presenting, slide navigation is accomplished via these keys:

Examples

For examples of presenting.vim presentations, see:
