1 autocue is a program which takes a simple text file as input, and
2 outputs its contents, broken up into paragraphs, and formatted by fmt,
3 into xcb's cut buffers. From there, the text can be pasted with a
4 simple mouse click. autocue will then wait for a period of time
5 relative to the size of the text, before moving onto the next
6 paragraph. Successive cut buffers will be used, and then will wrap
9 The speed can be varied whilst the program is running - by sending
10 a SIGUSR1 to the process, autocue will go faster. Sending a SIGUSR2
11 to the process will make it go slower.
13 This program can be used to scroll a presentation, along with timing
14 information (a beep is sounded when the next buffer should be pasted),
15 and the presenter can simply paste into the presentation window.
