Project Summary
pympress is a little PDF reader written in Python using Poppler for PDF rendering and GTK for the GUI.
The special thing is that it is designed to be a dual-screen PDF reader used during presentations and public talks. If you need to make a presentation using your laptop and an overhead projector, you may well like it. You'll have your presentation fullscreen on the projector, and at the same time some useful data on your laptop screen: a view of the current slide, a thumbnail of the next one, a clock, and a time counter indicating for how long you have been talking.
Is it mature?
For now this project is very young but already quite usable.
