[Scribus] New section in Working with Scribus: How to begin

[Benjamin Huot]

This is a good start. I found the master pages approach to be set up  
quite well, but getting the Table of Contents seemed quite arbitrary  
and non-intuitive. I assume it was designed to function in other ways  
and the design gives more power and flexibility, but it is rather  
cumbersome for tables of contents.
