## Context manager

`PresentationEditor` supports the context manager protocol. Use `with` to ensure native resources are released automatically:

```python

with PresentationEditor.edit(...) as presentation_editor:
    #... use presentation_editor...

    pass  # closed automatically on exit

```

Or close explicitly:

```python

presentation_editor = PresentationEditor.edit(...)
try:
    #... use presentation_editor...

    pass
finally:
    presentation_editor.close()

```
