A tiny PowerPoint-esque program written on a whim

SlideRB

SlideRB is the product of about an hour of work on a lazy Sunday afternoon. It's nothing too glorious, but it was fun to write, and it's been a while since I've used Ruby in any significant way.

##Usage## The presentation files are simply nested Ruby data structures, which are then evaluated (because it's easy to write, and easy to work with)

Here's the format:

[{:background => <RGB value>, 
  :text => [
            [{:size => <size>, :color => <RGB value>},
             <text>, x, y]...]} ... ]

Easy enough, yeah?

If you want to run this you need JRuby installed (because I wanted to use a cross-platform GUI toolkit).

To run: jruby SlideRB.rb

That's it!

Have fun playing with the ugly and quickly hacked together project ;)
