Presentations with Latex (PROSPER Class)

On Kubuntu 7.04 I did the following steps to install prosper class for Latex:

Download seminar and prosper to your home directory,

wget http://tug.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/seminar.zip

download prosper-1.00.4.tar.gz and contrib-prosper-1.0.0.tar.gz from http://prosper.sourceforge.net/.

Installation:

sudo apt-get install kile
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/
cd /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/
sudo unzip ~/seminar.zip
sudo tar -zxvf ~/prosper-1.00.4.tar.gz
sudo tar -C prosper/ -zxvf ~/contrib-prosper-1.0.0.tar.gz
sudo texhash

It’s ready to use. You may want to take a look at http://amath.colorado.edu/documentation/LaTeX/prosper/ for usage. Kile is an excellent GUI&editor for Latex.
