The Execute menu has a number of options.

Import PowerPoint allows you to search for and import the slides from a PowerPoint file (*.ppt) into the Lecture Directory.

Import ClipBoard allows you to automatically convert Quicktime media coming from the ClipBoard-2000 application. This feature is documented in a separate section.

Record Lecture walks you through the process of recording the lecture and timing the slides. This operates the same as in the Less Detail mode.

FlipIT! is a much more sophisticated interface to the lecture recording process. Using FlipIT, you have much more control how slides are presented, whether media is recorded or played, and supports multi-part lectures. The most common reason that people use FlipIT! is to time slides while playing pre-recorded media. Multi-part lectures are somewhat complex to use. FlipIT is documented later in this section.

TimeIT! is tool to edit event files. TimeIT also allows you to create event files from hand-timed material. It operates like a spreadsheet specifically designed for timings. TimeIT! does not work with timing information from ClipBoard or the Liberal Slide Names lectures. TimeIT is documented later in this section.

Make Lecture triggers the publishing process. It is the same as pushing any of the (3) Publish buttons.
