# dead simple string.replace- & string.index-based pptx creator from template
# pptx files. Basically performs a simple string search & replace in the pptx
# and outputs that as a copy.
#
# Can also replace images, which have the search key in the "title" property of
# a placeholder image in the pptx, which can be replaced with an arbitrary
# replacement image on disk (by path) or an in-memory PNG image.

I have listed all of the problems I encountered on ArchLinux with Valve Index and Steam VR in this post and how I managed to solve nearly all of them.

When I first plugged in my headset, turned on the controllers and started
