SYNOPSIS
       mkdir my-slideshow

       vim config.yaml
       spork -make

DESCRIPTION
   Spork lets you create HTML slideshow presentations easily. It comes with
   a sample slideshow. All you need is a text editor, a browser and a
   topic.

   Spork allows you create an entire slideshow by editing a single file
   called "Spork.slides" (by default). Each slide is created using a
   minimal markup language similar to the syntax used in Kwiki wikis.

MARKUP SYNTAX
   Spork markup is like Kwiki markup.

 Slides
   Slides are separated by lines consisting entirely of four or more
   dashes. Each slide consists of text and markup. This section describes
   each of the markup units.

   Any slide can be made to be multipart by putting a '+' at the beginning
   of a line where you want to break it. Each subpart will be cumulative to
   that point.

 Headings
   A heading is a line starting with 1-6 equals signs followed by a space
   followed by the heading text. The number of equals signs corresponds to
   the level of the heading.

       === A Level Three Heading

 Paragraphs
   Paragraphs are just paragraphs. They end with a blank line.

       This is my paragraph of something that I wanted to show
       you. This paragraph is now ending.

 Preformatted Text
   Preformatted text, like program source code for instance, is indicated
   by indenting it.

       My code:

           sub greet {
               print "Hello there\n";
           }

 Pretty Print
   You can markup a section of your source code with various colors and
   highlights. In this example we make the word "greet" display green and
   the word "Hello" display red and underline the quoted string.

       .pretty.
           sub greet {
       #       GGGGG
               print "Hello there\n";
       #             _______________
       #              RRRRR
           }
       .pretty.

 Unordered List
   Use asterisks to mark bullet points. The number of asterisks indicates
   the nesting level.

       * Point One
       ** Point One A
       ** Point One B
       * Point Two
       * Point Three

 Ordered List
   Same as unordered lists except use zeroes to mark bullet points. Ordered
   and unordered lists can be intermingled.

       0 Point One
       ** Point One A
       ** Point One B
       0 Point Two
       0 Point Three

 Bold Text
   Sourround one or more words with asterisks to make the text bold.

       This is *bold text* example.

 Italic Text
   Sourround one or more words with slashes to make the text italicized.

       This is /italic text/ example.

 Underlined Text
   Sourround one or more words with underscores to make the text
   underlined.

       This is _underlined text_ example.

 Teletyped Text
   Sourround one or more words with pipes to make the text appear in a
   fixed width font.

       This is |fixed width font| example.

 Images
   Each slide can display an image.

       {image: http://www.example.com/images/xyz123.png}

   This will download a copy of the image if it hasn't been downloaded yet.
   That way you can view your slides offline.

   If more than one image is encoded in a slide, Spork takes the last one.
   This is useful for a multipart slide where you want the image to change.
   Just put this image tag in the correct subpart.

 Files
   You can create a link to a local file. When clicked the file should
   appear in a new browser window.

       {file: mydir/myfile.txt}

   The "file_base" configuration setting will be prepended to relative
   paths.

CONFIGURATION
   Spork slideshows can be configured in three different ways. The first
   way is with the local "config.yaml" created by "spork -new". The second
   way is through a global configuration file called
   "~/.sporkrc/config.yaml". Any settings in the local file will override
   settings in the global file.

   The third way is to put YAML sections directly in your slides file. You
   can put a YAML section anywhere in the file that a slide would go, and
   you can have more than one section. In fact, you could change the
   configuration for each slide by putting a YAML section before each
   slide. Any settings in these sections will override the setting that
   came from anywhere else.

   See Spork::Config for more information.

CUSTOMIZATION
   You can easily extend and customize Spork by writing subclasses and
   putting them in the configuration or by fiddling with the template
   files. This version uses Template Toolkit templates by default.
