Mulberry Slideshow XML
The Mulberry Slideshow document type was developed to support the creation of courses, tutorials, and presentations. We share it on an “as is” basis, without support or warranty.
Many of our courses cover similar material, so we wanted a format that would facilitate long-term maintenance and reuse of materials as well as multi-media publishing: to create, for example, reasonably nicely formatted print as well as on-screen display. What we have ended up with, we think, is an interestingly powerful and versatile (if unconventional) document type, which scales nicely to support everything from brief presentations of ten or twelve slides, to whole courses taking three or four days to deliver.
To use this package, you will need a basic understanding of XML systems and processing and some skill with XML tools. It is not intended as a “learning application” for users just getting started with the technology.
On the other hand, as a demonstration, this package is intended as a jumping-off point. Please feel free to alter this application as you see fit, to do what you need it to do. We are also interested in any feedback you are able to give us: send e-mail to info@mulberrytech.com.
This package includes:
- XML DTD with modules
- DSSSL stylesheets to produce print and web output
- XSLT stylesheets to produce web output, both authoring and final
- CSS stylesheet for tinkering with colors in web output
- Configuration and stylesheets for the SoftQuad XMetaL editor
- Various supporting files (examples, graphics etc.)
See the file readme.txt and the enclosed Users’ Guide for details.
