RedCloth Mini-Cookbook Started: How Tos, Recipes, F.A.Qs

[Gerald Bauer]

Hello Jase,

  Wow. Great blog postings about S5 and creating PDFs with RedCloth. I
will add some new entries to the RedCloth Coobook with
references/links to your posts.

   Some minor update:

> There is a slideshow gem on RubyForge that works in a similar way. However this is using the old 3.x version of RedCloth.

  I've updated the slideshow gem to use the latest and greates
RedCloth gem shortly after the official release (sometime in early
August).

  Also note that I've started a mailing list/forum to encourage
sharing of insight, code, etc. for web slide show projects (using
Textile). For example, besides the slideshow (S9) gem there's also the
CodeX gem that uses S5 and Textile started by Pragmatic Dave and
packaged using rubyigen (the Ruby Generator Framework) by Dr. Nic.
You're invited to join @ http://groups.google.com/group/webslideshow

  Cheers.

PS: You can create S5 presentations with the slideshow gem using the
-s5 switch e.g.

$ slideshow -s5 microformats

If you don't flip the s5 switch you'll get a S6 slideshow (that's
basically a modern version/rewrite of S5 in jQuery).

Here's an example: http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/s5/jquery.html
And here's the Textile source:
