Ah.  It never occurred to me to do it that way.  Thanks.

Again, it's probably the one place I didn't look.

With scribus.net being down, I think I found an old version of the site
(http://web2.altmuehlnet.de/fschmid/download.html) which is where I got
the idea this was the current stable release.  Whoever runs that site
might replace it with a redirect to scribus.net.  Actually, on the
download page of scribus.net (which seems to be back up now) it says
"latest stable version of Scribus" under version 1.2.5.  Anyway, since I
had planned on upgrading to FC6 over the weekend, that will apparently
get me to 1.3.3.5 in any case.

Thanks for taking the time to straighten me out.  Scribus is quite
remarkable, if a little rough around the edges (in version 1.2.5,
anyway).  Thanks to the developers
