slide show looks like:

    * Step 3: Open up your slide show in your browser and hit the
space bar to flip through your slides
    * That''s it. Showtime!

   You can use heading 1 or heading 2 for slide breaks or use a
directive (that is, !SLIDE). Using text filters you can add comments,
macros and much more. Example:
