Ignore pause in LaTeX beamer with About

My name is

handout Gordon Lesti. I

have a B.Sc.
LaTeX PDF May 24, 2016 degree in
Computer Science.
When preparing my LaTeX slides with the beamer class for a presentation, I have used pretty often the pause
command. This command splits a frame and hides the content under pause on the first frame. This is very helpful
to give the audience step by step the content of a talk. But this can be very annoying when clicking throw the Tags
slides after the talk. There is a simple solution to ignore the pause commands. Art Audio

If we compile the document again, the one frame is again only one frame.

Ignore frames in handout mode

If we want to ignore also other frames in the handout mode, we just have to add handout:0 to the frame.

\begin{frame}<handout:0>
\frametitle{Example}
This frame will be ignored in handout.
