Remark.js makes web slides from Markdown. This plugin integrates Remark into ikiwiki. Simply write `your_slides.remark` instead of `your_blog_post.mdwn`, separating slides with `---`.

To set shared styles across all presentations on your site, put them in a top-level `remarklocal.css`. To set per-presentation styles, use the localstyle plugin as usual.

## Problem: `inline`

Web slides are sort of a regular web page, but not exactly: no action links, and almost none of the other accoutrements of `page.tmpl`. The branch's current behavior is that Remark slides are naively inlined like any other page, which -- because the Markdown is deliberately not being rendered by ikiwiki -- results in the slide source being displayed (and not elegantly). Clicking through to the slides works right, of course.

## Problem: safety of web-editing

This plugin is not currently safe for wikis where `.remark` pages can be edited by untrusted users; the htmlscrubber is unlikely to be able to prevent cross-site scripting in this plugin. Make sure only trusted (administrative) users can create or edit `.remark` pages.
