Got a bit carried away with #uxn adelie, and decided I needed to make my own presentation tool. Behold:

It's highly specific to my needs, though I imagine it shouldn't be too hard to hack.

@unlkfp cool. Reminds me of suckless sent. Unfortunately, when using this style of presentation in a business environment the point of it being "too barebones" was raised to me more than once. Highly depends on your audience, I guess.

@rpm Oh yup, definitely. Cultural expectations matter, the point is to communicate the topic without distraction. If the most deranged PowerPoint template is what does that the best, then I'll use it, albeit cursing the Windows UX the whole time.

To be honest, I'm not sure this tool will manage all that well for the talk I'm giving -- I doubt my audience has ever seen a bitmap font before; I'm sure there are going to be questions :P

At least if this is a waste, I only spent ~5h on it...
