thanks Dan/Lex.

please post the findings. thanks in advance.

I've been using slidy2, deckjs <http://houqp.github.io/asciidoc-deckjs/>,
remark <http://remarkjs.com/> for presenting technical stuff.
and I just did a quick test on asciidoctor deskjs
<http://asciidoctor.org/docs/install-and-use-deckjs-backend/> (the toc
doesn't work b.t.w) and dzslides
<https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-backends/tree/master/slim/dzslides>.
I had a quick look at keydown <http://infews.github.io/keydown/>, I'll
explore more...

I must say that:
* thanks for the example and step by step instructions - at least for
html/css idiot like me, the examples is the only way that I understand sth.
* I'm a bit lost in so many options and I need to think about which is the
most suitable for me.

I think personally what I prefer:

1) asciidoc(tor) based, pure text based, text editor(vim e.g.) friendly
2) compatible with the original asciidoc syntax - meaning I just write the
doc once, and I can then generate either slides or pdf based on the same
source
3) support those "must have" basic presentation features: incremental,
preview mode, toc, etc
4) text editor outliner/highlighter friendly.
5) looks shining and nice (at least to some extent).

2) maybe not really important - slides can't always be the same as manuals,
but at least it's great to have that ability, so whenever needed I can just
press the button to generate some slides without changing anything in my
source.

3) sounds a ridiculous one. not sure about how you guys write asciidoc
slides. for me it maybe the most important.  and it will be painful if I
don't have a navigation tree in the (vim) side panel - especially when the
slides go longer and longer. this outliner give me the full control about
the document/sides structure as a whole (see attached). this is where I
don't like remark or others that I don't have a outliner support in my
editor (Vim Voom).

...and Lex's tip on presentation is really great to know as thumb of the
rules - I hate people put every details in the slides and then just read
them to the audiences, but a lot people end up doing the same...

thanks.
regards
ping
