README for Org Tree Slide

#+Last Update: 2011-12-18@00:50

1. What’s this?

The main purpose of this elisp is to handle each tree in an org buffer as a slide by simple narrowing. This emacs lisp is a minor mode for Emacs Org-mode.

Main features:

  • Live editable presentation
  • Fast switching of narrowing/widen
  • TODO pursuit with narrowing
  • Displaying the current number of slides
  • Countdown timer
  • CONTENT view during a presentation
  • Slide-in effect
  • Slide header from org file’s header

1-1. Related packages

see http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/non-beamer-presentations.html.

2. Install

  1. Put this elisp into your load-path
  2. Add (require 'org-tree-slide) in your .emacs

OR

  1. Eval: (auto-install-from-url "https://raw.github.com/takaxp/org-tree-slide/master/org-tree-slide.el") (for auto-install users)
  2. Add (require 'org-tree-slide) in your .emacs

Then open an org file, just type <right> and <left>. A presentation will begin with a header, slide-in effect, and slide number.

2.1 Requirements

  • Org-mode 6.33x or higher version is required.
  • This elisp doesn’t require any additional packages.

3. Recommended settings

Assigning a single key to org-tree-slide-mode is recommended.

(global-set-key (kbd "<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-mode)
(global-set-key (kbd "S-<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-skip-done-toggle)

OR

(define-key org-mode-map (kbd "<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-mode)
(define-key org-mode-map (kbd "S-<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-skip-done-toggle)

4. Profiles

Three useful profiles are available. Please select a profile that is the most suitable for your using scenario.

If you select simple profile, call the following command while org-tree-slide-mode is ON.

M-x org-tree-slide-simple-profile

If you want to use this setting as the default, put the following configuration including recommended settings into your .emacs.

(when (require 'org-tree-slide nil t)
  (global-set-key (kbd "<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-mode)
  (global-set-key (kbd "S-<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-skip-done-toggle)
  (org-tree-slide-simple-profile))

org-tree-slide-presentation-profile and org-tree-slide-narrowing-control-profile are also available.

4-1. `Simple’

This profile will display trees of your org buffer by simple narrowing. You can change trees without widen command. Most of the visual effect is disabled.

Type M-x org-tree-slide-simple-profile while org-tree-slide-mode is ON.

  1. No header display
  2. No slide-in effect
  3. The cursor will move to the head of the buffer when exit
  4. No slide number display in mode line
  5. Display every type of tree

4-2. `Presentation’

This profile is used as the default setting of org-tree-slide. If an org buffer includes #+TITLE:, #+EMAIL:, and #+AUTHOR:, org-tree-slide attempts to use those variables in the slide header. A date in the header will be set with the presentation of the day. You can enjoy a slide-in effect, the current slide number in mode line. A presentation with a count down timer is started by M-x org-tree-slide-play-with-timer.

If you want to show the content of your presentation, type C-x s c or M-x org-tree-slide-content. All of the headers will be shown like a Table Of Content. Find a heading that you want to show, and type <right>, the presentation will be resumed.

It is possible to skip slides when a heading level is higher than or equal to a value of org-tree-slide-skip-outline-level. see User variables.

To exit a presentation, set org-tree-slide-mode OFF. The cursor move to the head of the buffer and the trees will be displayed using #+STARTUP: if possible.

M-x org-tree-slide-presentation-profile

  1. Display header
  2. Enable slide-in effect
  3. The cursor will move to the head of buffer when exit
  4. Display slide number in mode line
  5. Display every type of tree

4-3. `TODO Pursuit with narrowing’

This profile will display trees restricted to TODO status without a header and slide-in effect. It is very useful to concentrate your focus on the current TODO item that is not done, and go to the next task by a single typing of <right>. This is “TODO Pursuit with narrowing”. If you want to track every kind of tree including finished items, toggle M-x org-tree-slide-skip-done-toggle OFF.

When you exit org-tree-slide-mode, the cursor will keep the same position, it is therefore possible to focus again by toggle M-x org-tree-slide-mode again.

If you feel the cursor moving is very slow, please change a value of org-tree-slide-modeline-display to \'outside or nil.

M-x org-tree-slide-narrowing-control-profile

  1. No header display
  2. No slide-in effect
  3. The cursor will keep the same position when exit
  4. Display slide number in mode line
  5. Display TODO trees only

5. User variables

5-1. Useful settings for experts

If you like this elisp, the following setting is more useful. Try it!

<f8> / <f9> / <f10> / <f11> are assigned to control org-tree-slide.

(when (require 'org-tree-slide nil t)
  (global-set-key (kbd "<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-mode)
  (global-set-key (kbd "S-<f8>") 'org-tree-slide-skip-done-toggle)
  (define-key org-tree-slide-mode-map (kbd "<f9>")
    'org-tree-slide-move-previous-tree)
  (define-key org-tree-slide-mode-map (kbd "<f10>")
    'org-tree-slide-move-next-tree)
  (define-key org-tree-slide-mode-map (kbd "<f11>")
    'org-tree-slide-content)
  ;; Reset the default setting
  (define-key org-tree-slide-mode-map (kbd "<left>")  'backward-char)
  (define-key org-tree-slide-mode-map (kbd "<right>") 'forward-char)
  (setq org-tree-slide-skip-outline-level 4)
  (org-tree-slide-narrowing-control-profile)
  (setq org-tree-slide-skip-done nil)))
