Version 1.6.0 is now available. As the release number shows, this is a major improvement w.r.t version 1.4.0 of Active-DVI. This new version has been developed by Jun Furuse, Didier Rémy and Pierre Weis with also contributions by Roberto Di Cosmo. In addition to the regular features of the Active-DVI previewer: * Encapsulated Postscript File inclusion (using the graphics LaTeX package) * Some effects for presentation (pause, delay, text color change) * Embedded applications this release introduces a lot of new features * Improved API for embedded applications. * Support for X colors via an additional xwindows-colors.sty LaTeX package. * Thumbnails to see the entire presentation at a glance (press T to build the thumbnails, then t to toggle from thumbnails to your presentation). * Hyper references can now be made invisible. * Enhanced background possibilities. * A laser pointer. * Support for ``scripting'' from within the LaTeX source file via key bindings events generation. * Programmable save-slide feature. * An additional advi-slides.sty package facilitates easy presentations and is specially devoted to the impatient and/or the beginner. (Comments on this new package are warmly welcome.) * Additional examples, including simple ones for the slitex LaTeX package. * An improved manual. Play advi on the demonstration presentation demo.dvi that is in the test directory of the distribution. Look at source code of the various talks in the directory ``examples''. The source code and more information are available at http://pauillac.inria.fr/activedvi/ Once again, contributions and comments are warmly welcome.
