 rbbeamer is a preprocessor script to convert a structured file with informations about your slides into a .tex file. If pdflatex is installed, rbbeamer can go on and start pdflatex to build your PDF.
 
-Most of work is done by the LaTeX-Beamer-package. But writing TEX-Files for beamer can be a little bit annoying if you usually use only a small (and everytime the same) part of the things beamer is capable to do.

+Most of work is done by the LaTeX-Beamer-package. But writing TEX-Files for beamer can be a little bit annoying if you usually use only a small (and everytime the same) part of the things beamer is capable to do. So if you need individual slides using all beamer-capbilities, you should use beamer directly by writing a .tex-file.
 
-rbbeamer gives you access to (right now) just a small part of beamer-capabilities - in other words: it makes accessable the capabilities I usually use in my presentations / lectures. But you can input your data very fast with nearly no hazzle about formatting and counting clicks and all this stuff.

 rbbeamer ist a script written in [Ruby][ruby].

 ### Commands
 
 Commands start with a "#" as first char in a line. Every line not starting with # is ignored (so a blank as the first char means: this is a comment). You can use this to specify additional informations not shown on slide or just to decativate a command for testing purposes. The end of a command is defined by line break or seperator-char (default: |)

-Nearly all options regarding rbbeamer can be specified in command-line. But most times you don' t change your options. So ist is easier to use a config-file to save them. During startup rbbeamer sets all options to default values. If it finds .rbbeamer.conf, options are overriden by those specified in config-file. If you also specified options in command-line, these values will override the former ones.
+### Config-directory
+During startup rbbeamer tries to find config-dir (Linux: `~/.rbbeamer`). If it doesn't exist, it will be created. You can save some files used by a myjority of your presentations in this dir (i.e. logo-files, bibtex-sources). rbbeamer tries to find this files in this dir, if you didn't specify another directory. In my case, I store my bibtex-sourcefile with all entries I usually cite from in this dir. So I don't have to bother with copies of this file in different directories.
