Topic: Tonic Point pps viewer

Hello everybody
I just red this thread:
http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/topic … vs-abiword
And...remembered of an ancient post of mine in the Hungarian Ubuntu Forums about an intresting find.
There is a small java thingy, called Tonic Point viewer for viewing pps, and ppt files.
If someone does not want to install OpenOffice or LibreOffice just to be able to view some fancy presentations, grab this :
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1652545/.tonicpoint-1.4.jar
The original FreeBsd archive seems to be dead, so I put it in my Drobbox.
Its a java archive. Put it some folder in your path and open a .pps file like this :
java -jar /usr/local/bin/tonicpoint-1.4.jar "$@" %f
Or if you have problems with compositing enabled :
java -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false -jar /usr/local/bin/tonicpoint-1.4.jar %f

Have fun

Ha ezt el tudod olvasni, biztosan nem vagy rövidlátó.

Sorry , I forgot to mention, only works with Sun Java. :-(
