# ppt

Parser and writer for PowerPoint PPT files.  Pure-JS cleanroom implementation
from the Microsoft Open Specifications and related documents.

## Installation

In [nodejs](https://www.npmjs.org/package/ppt):

    npm install ppt 

## CLI Tool

The node module ships with a binary `ppt` that dumps the text content of a PPT
presentation.  The only argument is the file name:

```
$ ppt test.ppt
...
``` 

## Contributing

Due to the precarious nature of the Open Specifications Promise, it is very
important to ensure code is cleanroom.  Consult CONTRIBUTING.md
