Re: Removing section number in Pandoc-beamer?

[John MacFarlane <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>]

In the earlier example there's a section heading with
no content.  If you add some content, you'll get a
regular slide rather than just a section heading slide.

echo -e '# Title\n\nHi' | pandoc -t beamer -o test.pdf -M theme=Madrid

No "Section 1".

If your document has no hierarchical structure (e.g.
all level-1 headers) then you won't get title slides
like "Section 1".

If you have hierarchical structure, you'll get these
slides. Their formatting (including the numbering)
seems to be theme dependent.  I'm not sure why the
Madrid theme doesn't pay attention to

\setcounter{secnumdepth}{0}

in the latex pandoc produces.  I suggest you
generate a .tex file using `-t beamer -s -o test.tex`
and ask a beamer expert whether there's a way to
avoid the section number.
