[Scribus] Script to import addresses

[Gregory Pittman]

Obviously, I have a weak social life since this is what I'm doing on a 
Saturday night.

Here is a script, importadd.py, that will import addresses from a plain 
text file.
As written, what it does is take addresses, create a text frame, then 
for the next address make a new page. Modifications could allow it to be 
used in an existing document. I'll make a page on the Wiki about it 
tomorrow.

I also include a sample address file, which uses a single blank line 
after each address as a trigger to create the text frame, clear the 
address and go back to the file for the next address, so it must end in 
a blank line. If you have two or more blank lines between addresses, you 
will get frames on blank pages.

See the Scripter docs to learn how to change various page and frame 
parameters.
