I'm looking for a system that allows me to design "slide presentations" on
Suns. A typical "slide" would have an assortment of text, boxes, ellipses,
arrows; all the standard 2D graphics objects. The system would then allow
these slides to be "played back", either automatically (eg. at a
trade-show) or under operator control (like a standard 35mm slide
projector).

I am NOT looking for a postscript interpretter or anything that has to be
programmed. Something WYSIWYG like the Mac presentation packages (Kricket
Presents, PowerPoint) would be ideal.

On the other hand, it would be nice if it could have a hyper-media like
mechanism for interfacing with Unix.

Please email responses to the address below.  I will summarize to these
newsgroups if the response warrants it.
