Detailed Description

This runtime module contains everything about running 
Python and QtScript scripts inside Scribus.

Look at run_filename for details.

Function Documentation

def scripter_runtime.cleanup

(

)

delete every child which is not marked as keep

def scripter_runtime.mark_keep

(

)

mark every child of Scripter.collector to keep

def scripter_runtime.run_filename	(		filename,
			subroutine = None,
			extension = False,
			background = False
	)

Call this function to run a script and nothing else. 
It will do everything for you, including garbage collection
for QtScript (very simple implementation, see mark_keep and cleanup).
Running as extension uses the __main__ namespace and does not
delete objects after execution.
Running in background as a thread is not much tested and 
should only be used for non-GUI scripts.
