Criawips aims to become a full featured presentation application that offers the perfect platform both for small presentations used to explain a few things to other people and for big presentations used for commercial presentations.
Thus it should become easy to use, provide a good integration with other applications to become a presentation platform that can compete with commercial applications like MS PowerPoint, StarOffice Impress and Apple's Keynote.
Since version 0.0.10, criawips supports text editing. It's yet very basic, but it's going to be improved pretty much with the next releases.
This was the first big step towards creating presentations with criawips. Now the editing capabilities are going to be improved and then we can work on the template infrastructure to provide layouting.
Requirements:
Parts of the GNOME and GNOME Office SDK.
Installation:
tar xzf criawips-x.y.z.tar.gz
cd criawips-x.y.z
./configure
make
make install
