I'd like to create the equivalent of a PowerPoint presentation

PowerPoint does. It has to run on Windows 98 and newer machines.

a PowerPoint composer.]
Also, I'd like to control the background color on the entire
page. I haven't found a way to do that with groff yet. I can
get colored print and fill on drawn spaces using \D... sequences.
Does groff allow background color control with colored type
on top (such as yellow print on a blue background?
The gpresent package does all that and more. It is available at
