1. Introduction

Txt2tags can be used as a conveniant tool for generating presentations using Beamer or Slidy

1.1. This is a Slide

And the content can be typeset with regular txt2tags markup.

You can also use bullet list:

The keyword PAUSE (in Beamer) can also be used to explicitly pause...

1.2. Description Lists are Blocks

Block title
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

1.3. But They Can Also Be Used As Lists

Item lists
  • with
  • bullets
Enumeration lists
  • one
  • two
  • three

1.5. Table (with Colours)

column1 column2
val1a val2a
val1b val2b

1.6. Uncovering Line by Line

Just add PAUSE (in Beamer) at the end of the line.

column1 column2 colum3
val1a val2a val3a
val1b val2b val3b
val1c val2c val3c

2. Handling Verbatim

2.1. Special Slide

Caveats: Verbatim text in beamer can be very tricky to use.

It has to be in a special slide that does not support animations like the regular slides.

Solution (Hack)

So we use unnumbered title instead (Latex handles the sectionning and table of contents anyway) 

  + Section +
  
  ++ A standard slide ++
  
  This is a regular slide with
  + ani
  + ma
  + tions
  +

Solution (Hack) cont.

With verbatim 

    == A Slide with Verbatim ==
  
    You can insert regular verbatim blocks.
   
    ```

        way
