Re: Which software is best for giving a perl presentation

Nice system is S5, http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/, where you can use a browser for viewing the slides and also easily publish your presentation on the web.

UPDATE: You might check out wikipedia Presentation_program for a bigger list of presentation programs. The alternative german page might be helpful too, even if you can't read german, as it has comments like Linux,MacOS,... behind the program names so that you can narrow down your selection faster.

I use spod5, which translates POD into S5. It works quite well and fits well into my workflow and presentation style (me telling a story and bullet points appearing to underline the story). I've hacked an SVG-to-PNG converter into it to do stepwise animations of drawings and there are also tools to do syntax highlighting of Perl code automatically.	[reply]

S5 is an interesting solution - but it is worth noting that the design of the slides used in it are constrained in some ways (for example I could not find a way to make my text centred vertically - maybe it is possible but certainely not easy). I think for a next presentation I'll prepare something in PDF istead.	[reply]
