-PDFCube renders PDF presentations with special 3D effects (the

-Right now you get a 3D cube transition pressing "c" and you can zoom
-on 5 areas with "h", "j", "k", "l" and "z" keys or simply switching
-pages with double buffering (no redrawing is visible) and with full
-anti-alias.
-
-If you want to program your cube transitions in advance give the page
-you want the transition at on the command line this way (0 means
-between page 1 and page 2, rudimental but will change soon):

- $ pdfcube file.pdf 0 5 10
-
-Rotating cube transition is of great effect when put on a big
-projection screen, so be moderate! One or two cube transitions done
-when changing argument can help understanding that you are switching
-to a new part of the presentation. On the other hand using cube
-transition on every page can give seasickness to your audience ;)
+Please see the man page for usage information.

-== Future Plans ==
-
- * Use the strategy pattern to clearly uncouple animations from cube logic.
-
- * Add more animations.
-
- * Have a language so we can program presentations (cube animations,
-   zooming, other transitions).
-
- * Read transitions effects from PDF file.
