Getting Basic Templates
First step is to download the basic templates from the git repository:
git clone git://projects.mako.cc/beamer-mako
The path of least resistance will be to clone the repository so that is located as a subdirectory of ~/tex/.
Next, copy or create symlinks so that the following three files are in your path (e.g., in ~/bin/:
new_beamer_presentationvc-gitvc-git.awk
Once you have done this, you can use the script to create new presentations like:
new_beamer presentation foo-20150920
This will create a new subdirectory called foo-20150920 with a file called foo-20150920.tex inside.
Modify/Customize Templates
At the very least, you will need to modify the lines that start with \title, \author, and \institute. Please don't push back changes or patches that include modifications to these lines.
