rendering is done in the background using Ghostscript.

Options
-h Show summary of options.
-o Do not override window manager. pspresent will attempt to disable decorations and resize itself
to the size of the screen, but will otherwise co-operate with your window manager (which may mean
that it is not truly fullscreen).
-s Limit pspresent to only use the given head on a XINERAMA display.
-OPortrait|Landscape|Upside-Down|Seascape
Override orientation.
-l Loop mode; go to start of document when at end, and vice versa.
-t[delay]
Automatic slideshow mode. The delay is optional, the default value is 20 seconds.
-Tfile Automatic slideshow mode. The file contains one integer value per line, corresponding to the delay
between the current slide and the next one. You must put a value for each page of your document
(count overlays, too). A value of 0 will disable the timer for the current slide.
