## Moloch
|
|
|
|
Moloch is a simple Beamer theme suitable for anyone to use. It is
|
|
a fork of the [Moloch Theme](https://github.com/matze/mtheme).
|
|
I created the fork mainly to fix some outstanding issues
|
|
to Moloch, since the theme is no longer actively maintained.
|
|
I also wanted to simplify some of the code, for instance no longer hard-code
|
|
the use of the Fira Sans font and introduce subtitles for frames.
|
|
|
|
Have a look at the [demo slides][] to see how the theme looks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Installing Moloch from source, like any Beamer theme, involves four easy
|
|
steps:
|
|
|
|
1. **Download the source** with a `git clone` of the [repository](https://github.com/jolars/moloch).
|
|
2. **Compile the style files** by running `make sty` inside the downloaded
|
|
directory. (Or run LaTeX directly on `source/molochtheme.ins`.)
|
|
3. **Move the resulting `*.sty` files** to the folder containing your
|
|
presentation. To use Moloch with many presentations, run `make install`
|
|
or move the `*.sty` files to a folder in your TeX path instead (might require
|
|
`sudo` rights).
|
|
4. **Use the theme for your presentation** by declaring `\usetheme{moloch}` in
|
|
the preamble of your Beamer document.
|
|
|
|
## Usage

|
|
|
The following code shows a minimal example of a Beamer presentation using
|
|
Moloch.
