For Linux etc. users there are several independent programs that will translate various strings to other strings, including at the simplest level sed and awk and for more complex matters there are lex and yacc and their modern equivalents flex and bison. It may be that these tools can be used outside of Scribus to do the conversions you desire. This may save you reinventing the wheel. All these tools are well documented. -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
