Bruce the Presentation Tool

Bruce the Presentation Tool is for Python programmers who are tired of fighting with presentation tools. In its basic form it allows text, code or image pages and even interactive Python sessions. It uses PyGame and is easily extensible to add new page types.

1.2 is a big improvement over 1.1, mostly thanks to the new “socrates.py” tool. See doc/socrates.txt for more information. Big thanks to Anthony Baxter who’s responsible for most of this work.

Changes in 1.2:

• added control-F to switch between fullscreen and windowed mode (X11 only)

• added ShellInterpreterPage and SpawnPage

• added socrates.py driver script - see doc/socrates.txt for more

• highlighting of code pages

• timed auto-advancing of pages

• simple syntax for text page effects

• autotyping enhancements…

… and much more. See doc/socrates.txt for more.
