Re: [O] Fwd: epresent issue

2013-09-28 Thread Eric Schulte

 I can't reproduce this problem with a recent version of epresent and
 Org-mode.  For example with the following minimal Emacs invocation
 (without any configuration, run from the epresent directory).

 emacs -Q --eval (progn (add-to-list 'load-path
 \~/src/org-mode/lisp\) (require 'org)) -l epresent.el present.org


 I tried this (with my-path adjustments); and a just-downloaded epresent
 from above link; still the same behavior

 In more detail:

 0. Run command

 emacs -Q --eval (progn (add-to-list 'load-path \~/pdsw/org-mode/lisp\)
 (require 'org)) -l ~/.emacs.d/downloads/epresent.el  lastLect.org
 and then in emacs:

 1. Start with epresent-run
 The buffer changes form half-way -- ie
 a. it becomes full-screen,
 b the menu line vanishes but
 c. the mode line is present
 d. the fonts are still small

 2. After than whatever key I press (including q) it becomes like a
 presentation -- ie no mode-line and large fonts

 3. One more q and it quits with the q appearing where point was last



 Also just checked with this trivial 4-line file in case there was something
 in my org file.  Still the same

 I just wonder if its to do with
 1. emacs version 23.4.1

Maybe the problem here could be the Emacs version, I'm using Emacs
24.3.1.  A long while ago I remember having to hit t after launching a
presentation to get the large fonts which sounds very similar to the
issue you describe above.  I don't suppose it's possible for you to
switch to Emacs 24?

 
 2. I am using xfce not the more common gnome/kde etc

I'm using Xmonad which is probably less common even than xfce.  I guess
this difference could also be the cause of the weird behavior.

 
 Thinking of the second because there is a kind of lag in the
 full-screening of the window -- something which seems related to the
 window manager??

Sorry I don't have the motivation to test under other window managers.
Hopefully an Emacs upgrade will help or there is some other workaround
(e.g., pressing t after calling epresent-run).

Best,

  Hi
 
  I am trying to use epresent for presentation.
  Start epresent with M-x epresent-run
 
  I seem to need to press one more q to get out of epresenting and then
 that
  q gets into the file.
