I started  the project before 1.1.5 came out; haven't had a chance to 
work with 1.1.5 except to do the final PDF of the file.

Thanks! I'm glad it was useful. I am very interested esp. in version 
1.2 when it's out. I just wish I were good enough with code to actually 
get Scribus building natively on the Mac. According to the KDE-Darwin 
folks (who ported KOffice and KDevelop and the other stuff to OS X) the 
X11 graphics stuff (my builds always died when they got to GC items in 
the code) can't just be commented/if-def'ed out (as they did with most 
other X11 stufF), so apparently it's a tough nut to crack. I don't feel 
so bad. :-)

Regards,
Kevin
