not really, the script works as is. for most people it will work correctly without any settings. just name your csv file as described, run the script and you'll get a bunch of pdf files. if you want more, you can create a config file. the drawback being that you have to spend some time to setup a json file. the advantage is that once you have a config file, it's trivial to adapt it for other projects and you can easily run the script from the terminal. if you want a gui for it, i accept pull requests. it must remain optional and i'd like to have it as simple as possible. (it might simply be a config generator and loader that can launch the main script) personally, i'd prefer to work on a few more features before adding a GUI. but i won't stop you if you work on a GUI! ciao a.l.e p.s.: i have no personal use for this script, so don't expect a fast progress. i've mostly created the script to show a simpler alternative to the scribus generators, an alternative that works from inside of scribus. and for experimenting with the reading and writing of styles and formatting with a script. ___ Scribus Mailing List: scribus@lists.scribus.net Edit your options or unsubscribe: http://lists.scribus.net/mailman/listinfo/scribus See also: http://wiki.scribus.net http://forums.scribus.net
