1. export PATH=/nfs-7/texlive/2015/bin/x86_64-linux:$PATH

2. cd to slideMaker directory and add it to the path: export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$(pwd)

I recommend putting these in your .bashrc.

1. cd project/

2. python test.py

This will produce test_1.pdf with an example slide for each of the possible slide types, and copy them to your public_html folder

Instead of test.py, you could execute slideMaker.py. This makes it simpler to test things on the fly.
