Hi Thomas and Aditya,
Many thanks to both of you for uploading a new version of your module.
I installed it with ConTeXt version 2012.02.08, and after doing
context --generate
context --make --all
I tried the following minimal example, which results in an error (see below)
begin talk-test.tex
\usemodule
[simpleslides]
[style=Swoosh]
\setupTitle
[title={Testing SimpleSlides},
author={A.U. Thor},
date={\currentdate}]
\starttext
\placeTitle
%\stoptext % the title page is typeset correctly
\SlideTitle{First slide}
This module is written by Thomas and Aditya.
\stoptext
end talk-test.tex
The first page (the title page) is typeset correctly if one uncomment the first
« %\stoptext » in the above lines (well, it is not anymore midaligned, but this
must be something which can be changed).
However as soon as there is \SlideTitle{First slide}, there is an error
message, as follows:
inserted text
}

[NTG-context] Simpleslides crash
Dear Aditya and Thomas,
Using the simpleslides seems impossible with the latest beta (ConTeXt ver:
2012.01.25 14:16 MKIV fmt: 2012.1.31): mkiv stops with a « fatal error » on
this minimal test:
% begin fatal-test.tex
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\usemodule[simpleslides]
[style=Swoosh,
font=Palatino,

alternative=stripe]
\setupTitle
[title={Why fatal error?},
date={11 février 2012},
]
\starttext
\placeTitle
\stoptext
end fatal-test.tex
Is there a solution?
Thanks in advance: OK
