PresentAPL

Overview

PresentAPL is a class that creates a slide show from a Markdown file: the result is - by default - a stand-alone HTML file that acts in any modern browser like a slide show. That's possible because it injects some CSS and some JavaScript into that HTML file.

It also comes with an EXE. That allows you to create a presentation without having installed Dyalog at all, or not the required version (15.0 Unicode or better).

Example: presentation in `PresentAPL` about `PresentAPL.

Compare this with the simplicity of the Markdown source file.

PresentAPL version 2.1.0 (2017-01-01) is downloadable from this page.

ReadMe.html is the first thing to read.

Note that only the script PresentAPL.dyalog and the file PresentAPL.css are under this license. The downloadable zip file contains other files as well, but they are members of the APLTree project — see http://aplwiki.com/CategoryAplTree for details.

Most notably PresentAPL needs MarkAPL, a Markdown-to-HTML5 converter written in Dyalog. See MarkAPL for details.
