tpp stands for text presentation program and is an ncurses-based presentation tool. The presentation can be written with your favorite editor in a simple description format and then shown on any text terminal that is supported by ncurses - ranging from an old VT100 to the Linux framebuffer to an xterm.
The following example is very simple, showing only a fraction of tpp's features. For more examples, download tpp and have a look at the examples subdirectory.
