1 # Synopsis
2
3 Catpoint is a simple viewer of text files written in curses. Further
4 documentation comes in a series of slides. Just do:
5
6 $ make && ./catpoint showoff/*.txt
7
8 ## Slide Effects
9
10 If you want to have some effects between slides, you can run a script or
11 application. The argument to catpoint needs to be some executable file.
12
13 An example for how to do this is:
14
15 $ catpoint-wrap showoff/random-animation.sh showoff/*.txt
16
17 You will need terminaltexteffects from:
18
19 https://github.com/ChrisBuilds/terminaltexteffects
20 $ pip install --user terminaltexteffects

28 How to easily create a presentation for catpoint from some md file is then:
29
30 % $EDITOR presentation.md
31 % cat presentation.md | md2point
32 % catpoint *.txt
33
34 Or simply:
35
36 % dir2point
37
38 This will greatly speed up your productivity.

40 ## Usage

44 ## License
45
46 In 2017 I simply took over catpoint and relicensed it under GPLv3 to
47 protect it against military and villain Open Source customers. If the
48 original author does not like this, contact me at my e‐mail address and
49 will find a solution.
