attentive/README.md

Attentive is a new take on Ruby presentation software. It provides lots of smart things already set up for you:

• A simple slide transition system written from scratch with no jQuery (oh snap!)
• Sass, Compass, and CoffeeScript all plugged into Sprockets and ready to generate your presentation's CSS and JavaScripts.
• Pygments for syntax highlighting.
• Simple slide syntax, really really similar to how Showoff does it.

Here's what you can do:

attentive create <presenation name>

Create a new presentation.

attentive

Run the presentation that's in the current directory on port 9393.

attentive start -p <port>

Run the current presentation on another port.

attentive static

Generate a static copy of the presentation and dependent files into _site.

attentive gh-pages

Generate a static copy, commit it to the gh-pages branch of your site. gh-pages gets created if it doesn't exist.

Edit presentation.rb and start adding .slides files in presentation/. The files are processed in sort order.

While the presentation is running:

• Click a slide, use the spacebar, or the right arrow to advance
• Use the left arrow to go back
• Hit [ Shift ]-T to toggle a timer on and off, then lowercase t to turn it on and off
• Hit \ to reset the timer
