TermPresenter

TermPresenter is a presentation tool that works entirely inside a terminal. It converts text and image slides into ASCII art so you can present over SSH, serial consoles or any other terminal connection.

Requirements

• Ruby
• Pango library for Ruby
• netpbm utilities (for image conversion)
• standard UNIX tools such as cut

Installation

git clone https://github.com/ikegam/Termpresenter.git
cd Termpresenter
bundle install
chmod +x ./bin/tmptr
./bin/tmptr -h

Usage

Slides are stored as files inside the presen/ directory. Run ./bin/tmptr to start the presentation. Use the following keys while running:

• n : next page
• p : previous page
• c : execute command
• l : reload slides from directory
• q : quit

Directory layout
