DeckCraft is an open-source presentation program: slide masters and
layouts, themes, sections, speaker notes, more than 150 shapes and
connectors, pictures, tables, charts and diagrams, transitions and
animations, and a full-screen slide show. It opens and saves PowerPoint
presentations (.pptx), keeps its own .deckcraft format, and exports PDF,
PNG, JPEG, an animated GIF and outlines. This is an unofficial port of
DeckCraft 0.15.0 to AmigaOS 4 (PPC). It is based on DeckCraft by the
ArtCraft team (https://github.com/storytold/deckcraft) and is not made,
endorsed or supported by the ArtCraft team. DeckCraft is not affiliated
with Microsoft Corporation.

Requirements
- AmigaOS 4.1 on a PowerPC G3 or newer (tested on an AmigaOne X5000)
- clib4.library 2.5 or newer
- mesa.library 1.2 or newer (Mesa 3D for AmigaOS 4 by kas1e)
  (if one is missing or too old, DeckCraft says which version is needed)
- A Radeon graphics card supported by Mesa, with A-EON's RadeonHD or
  RadeonRX driver (tested with RadeonRX); Warp3D Nova is not used
- About 512 MB of free RAM

Installation
Unpack the archive anywhere writable and double-click the DeckCraft icon.
File > New offers "Sample deck: Northern Lights" to try it out.

Amiga integration
- Presentations are opened, saved and exported, and pictures inserted,
  with ASL requesters; presentations open from their project icons and
  can be dragged from Workbench onto the window.
- Shortcuts work with the Amiga key, as the menus show them (Ctrl too).
- Copy and paste text through the Amiga clipboard (FTXT), in the Locale's
  character set (Polish, Czech, Russian...); AltGr types.
- File > Print prints slides through printer.device, with the printer
  and driver set in Prefs/Printer.
- The slide show runs on a screen of its own; transitions and most
  animations are moved and blended by the GPU.
- The window remembers its position and size and can be zoomed and
  iconified.
- Unsaved presentations are kept as recovery copies and offered again at
  the next start.
- Spelling is checked in English, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Italian,
  Polish, Czech, Turkish and Russian; their Hunspell dictionaries (from
  LibreOffice) are included.

Notes
- The interface is in English.
- Audio and video play without sound (no audio output yet).
- Full English and Spanish instructions are in ReadMe and LEEME; all
  licenses are in the Licenses drawer.

Built with the Rust compiler for AmigaOS 4 by AmigaLabs and clib4.
Thanks to kas1e for Mesa on AmigaOS 4, and to Andrea Palmate (afxgroup)
and the clib4 developers for clib4 (based on clib2 by Olaf Barthel).
Thanks also to Javier Rivas (Javirulo) for testing and help.
