Subject: software for overhead projection
Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2000 15:19:11 +1100 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <14873.63423.923420.483347@pjr2-as.dar.csiro.au> (raw)

Help help! I'm getting powerpoint envy ... Well not really.  I am,
though, looking for some of its functionality, i.e to project
overheads.  I'm imagining  myself at front of lecture with
speech-enabled laptop and overhead projector panel connected to video
output.  I have a file menu (probably using something like the
dired-mode  of emacspeak) which the members of the audience can't
see.   "visiting" a file feeds it to ghostscript or acroread or
something to display it on the panel.  
I foresee all kinds of problems with this, e.g. the emacspeak session
(or however we do this) has to be invisible, but it sounds like a task
for some interestingly devious hacking.  
Anyone done anything like this?  Have any ideas?
cheers
Peter Rayner
