Re: Slide Presentations In RestructuredText?

Hi,

there are a couple of things I have experimented with.

There is rst2beamer, which is docutils based but somewhat
unmaintained:

https://github.com/rst2beamer

I do have my own fork on github and use a custom template, but wouldn't
recommend it actually.

There is also the possibility tp use rst2pdf, which is reportlab based,
I believe:

And lastly -- this is my favorite option right now -- you can use pandoc
to make beamer slides from RST:

That seems the most powerful option.

best and hope it helps,
