Comment(by was):
> The first frame shows up fine, but the second and subsequent frames
don't show any code cells
This is an unintended bug which I'm fixing.
> Reasons I don't like the specified behavior:
> 1. The resulting code is more complex.
> 2. Using <hr>'s, while documented, is not intuitive. I'd never have
thought of that, and I'd probably assume that the slideshow mode was just
broken crap.
> By contrast, the version before part-2.patch was clean, simple and
intuitive.
I'm trying to give an *actual* talk, and in preparing it, I learned that
the version before part-2.patch was actually totally broken crap for
actual use. In contrast, what I've just written is really awesome for
actual use. There is a huge difference between imagining maybe giving a
talk and actually writing a talk you're going to give in front of a 130
people. It is absolutely essential to have slides that are given by a
marker. <hr> is a very reasonable choice for a marker.
> 3. The counter / progress meter shows the number of cells, not the
number of frames. This is counterintuitive.
It's going to be a lot more work to implement the counter to show the
frames, and I decided not to implement that in the interest of iterative
development.
