At a few dev meetups, some presenters just did markdown documents with enough new lines to be equivalent to a page. That way they just pressed pgdn on their laptop.

On another note, some lecture-style slides (where review post-presentation or without presentation) can be really helpful for understanding concepts otherwise described in math and without examples in official papers. Many CS publications seem to make this mistake in my eyes--that is, presenting something novel without bridging the gap via examples.



That seems extremely painful without explicit page break characters, because if you were to rewrite anything, you would have to adjust the corresponding whitespace or else everything would get misaligned.


At the time I found http://remarkjs.com/#1 visually appealing and dev-oriented.


Opera had a nice presentation mode for such things.

I have seen also some pages with similar functionality, and a couple of flash apps.

Even a PDF created from Latex works wonders for that purpose.
