This is for the wiki, I suppose, but do you (or anyone) have any experience using scribus in this way? I think it is quite interesting I am especially interested in scripting scribus so that it can ‘compile’ the versioned source files to a layout automatically. You could call a scribus script on the post-commit hook of your versioning system in many cases I guess Latex would be simpler for such a thing—but that has its limitations… -- Eric Schrijver Op 27 apr 2010, om 01:32 heeft Jon Phillips het volgende geschreven: > I'm also adding Christopher Adams who published http://freesouls.cc > with Joi Ito last year.
