When creating the content for your slideshow presentation within a PITCHME.md markdown file you need to be able to distinguish between one slide and the next. This is achieved very simply using a GitPitch convention within Markdown that indicates the start of each new slide.

As both horizontal and vertical slides are supported by GitPitch each has it's own unique delimiter.

To denote the start of a horizontal slide simply add the following delimiter in your Markdown:

#HSLIDE

To denote the start of a vertical slide simply add the following delimiter in your Markdown:

#VSLIDE

By using a combination of horizontal and vertical slides you can customize the navigation within your slideshow presentation. Typically vertical slides are used to present information below a top-level horizontal slide.

For example, a very simple two slide PITCHME.md presentation can be created as follows:

#HSLIDE

Hello, World!

#HSLIDE

The End :)

As the delimiter for the opening slide in every presentation is implicit this two slide PITCHME.md presentation can be further simplified as follows:

Hello, World!

#HSLIDE

The End :)

A PITCHME.md presentation that uses both horizontal and vertical slides can be created as follows:

Hello!

#VSLIDE

Hola!

#HSLIDE

Goodbye!

#VSLIDE

Adiós!
