Original Markdown Copyright (c) 2004-2005 John Gruber http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/
Myself got kicked into action by seeing https://github.com/puppetlabs/showoff and getting terribly envious by realizing how much of a productivity gain that would be.
Have a tool like pandoc, latex beamer etc, that you can write (or auto-generate) input for within your favourite hacker's editor, and generate nice-looking slides from. Using your corporation's mandatory, CI-compliant and lovely-artsy Impress template. Including syntax-highlighted code snippets of your latest hack, auto-fitted into the slides.
Getting ready should be a simple matter of running
python setup.py install
from a terminal.
On Windows, run it via the command prompt (Start ‣ Accessories):
setup.py install
Alternatively, running odpdown directly from the git checkout is
also possible, provided you've installed the prerequisites (most
significantly mistune, lpod, pygments, lxml and pillow) manually.
Run tox to run the test suite.
pip install tox
tox -v
usage: odpdown [-h] [--version] [-p PAGE] [-n] [-s HIGHLIGHT_STYLE]

"default", "emacs", "friendly", and "colorful".
[Defaults to colorful]
-c CODE_FONT_NAME, --code-font-name CODE_FONT_NAME
Set font name used for code fragments. [Defaults to

--break-master [BREAK_MASTER]
Use this master page for the 1st level headlines. List
available ones if called with empty or unknown name
--content-master [CONTENT_MASTER]
Use this master page for the 2nd level headlines and
content. List available ones if called with empty or
unknown name
-
Stick your markdown slides into template, use break_slides from the template's master pages for 1st level headings, and content_slides as the master page for 2nd level headings and content:
odpdown \ --break-master=break_slides --content-master=content_slides \ slides.md corp_template.odp out_slides.odp -
Stick a bunch of markdown chapters into template, after slide 1:
cat intro.md deploy.md tuning.md | \ odpdown -p 1 - corp_template.odp out_slides.odp -
Stick a bunch of of markdown chapters into existing preso, e.g. to keep a few hand-crafted slides inbetween:
# intro comes after slide one odpdown -p 1 into.md hand_crafted.odp out_slides.odp # deploy comes after architecture slide, which is slide 2 in # hand_crafted.md and 2+10 after intro got added odpdown -p 12 deploy.md out_slides.odp out_slides2.odp
Have a lot of fun,
