Creates .info file for use with Impressive and LaTeX Beamer
Impressive is a pdf viewer that aids in viewing presentations made in LaTeX Beamer. Impressive uses a .info control file to specify the transitions used between pages. While this file isn't necessary, the Beamer-based presentation can be presented in a much more consistant style when the .info file is tuned to the individual presentation. makebeamerinfo is designed to create this file based on an auxiliary file (.nav) that Beamer creates in parallel with the presentation. It also does not require any configuration or tags in the presentation source.
Users looking for usage information should look at makebeamerinfo. For subclassing information (not stable yet) one might look at App::makebeamerinfo.
App::makebeamerinfo can be installed from CPAN using the standard cpan client (or better yet cpanm).
For Ubuntu users, Liviu Andronic manages an Ubuntu (Debian) PPA. See more at:
