<P>I hope this is the right mailing list to post this to!</P>
<P>In the course of trying to make a Scribus file importer/exporter for my
program Laidout (laidout.org), I noticed the current "stable" file format is not
documented sufficiently (I was particularly interested in PageSets, whose
implementation in Scribus still confuses me). So I made an html table builder to
create something akin to the old 1.2 format at in docs.scribus.net.</P>
<P>The builder program is meant to take a much easier to edit and understand
input file and output an html file. This perl program is</P>
<P>here:</P>

<P>A sample input file is here:</P>

<P>And a sample output html is here:</P>

<P>What is the best way to get something like this totally documented, and on
the Scribus site? (I just sent off a request for a scribus wiki account, as per
wiki instructions)</P>
