+# This script uses KPresenter's DCOP interface to automate a presentation
+# Every 10 seconds, it goes to the next sequence or page (just as if
+# 'space' was pressed)
+#
+# Idea from Christopher Molnar <molnarc@mandrakesoft.com>
+# Implementation by David Faure <faure@kde.org> using Matthias Ettrich dcop shell
+#
+# Open the presentation in kpresenter, then launch this script
+#
