TPS example: Basic TPS Example. A teleprompter script demonstrating the TPS format with teleprompter and raw source views.
How Prompter One renders this script for the speaker — dark background, emotion-colored segments, emphasis underlines, pause markers, and a spotlight reading zone.
This is leading text before the first block. It inherits the segment's speed and emotion.
Welcome to TPS. This is a minimal example showing how the format works.
A single slash means a short pause. A double slash means a longer pause.
You can use emphasis for important words. You can also use markdown italic for emphasis and markdown bold for strong emphasis. You can use highlight for key ideas.
That is the basics. Simple and readable.
◆ edit point
This segment uses a simple header without brackets. It inherits the default emotion and base WPM.
To write a literal bracket in text, escape it: \.
The complete .tps file — valid markdown you can open in any text editor.
