[Scribus] image frame script problem

[Dan Fink]

Please bear with me here--I'm new at both Scribus and Python!

I'm trying to run the 'Add Blank Space Around Image Frame' script, and
get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 9, in ?
  File "/home/danbob/book/fscript.py", line 5
     try:
     ^
 SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I enabled the Scripter, env and python are where they should be
in /usr/bin.

Any ideas? Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks in advance!
