You are to make a slide deck by writing commands, one on each line. These are the commands:
find-image(search-term="WORDS", filename="NAME.jpg") finds a picture of WORDS and keeps it under the name NAME.jpg.
set-background(color="COLOUR") colours the whole slide, for example "navy", "ivory", "black" or "crimson".
set-image(filename="NAME.jpg") shows a picture you have already found.
set-text(text="WORDS") writes words at the bottom of the slide; set-text(text="") removes them.
next-slide() finishes the slide and begins a new, empty one.
end-deck() ends the deck; write it once, after the last slide.
All the text messages must be meaningful when strung together: read one after another, from the first slide to the last, they should make one connected account.
Write only commands.

Make a slide deck about the sea.
