<p>Note that additions to the Scripter are being made frequently, which means
that the available documentation may be incomplete.</p>
+<h3>Scripter and Windows</h3>
+<p>If you installed your Windows version of Scribus using the installer at
Sourceforge, the installation includes Python2.7 in a directory labeled
python\. This will suffice for most uses. You may find or write some Python
script which requires an additional Python package not included, and there is
no way to add these to the Scribus directory. Chances are, your system is not
even aware of this Python.</p>
+<p>Should you need to use some additional packages, the answer comes from
installing Python27 on your system, then also the desired additional packages.
The next and important step is to use a file manager to go to C:\Program
Files\Scribus 1.5.3\ and look for a directory named python\. Simply rename this
to anything else, such as oldpython\, and the next time Scribus starts, it will
use the system Python and its packages.</p>
<h3>Using the Plug-in</h3>
<p>Scribus is being shipped with some “hard-wired” scripts, which
are available via <i>Scripter > Scribus Scripts</i>:</p>
