[JW Lua] New pages

[Charles O. Lawrence]

Sorry to keep making life difficult!

I had actually considered doing something like what you suggested, but I
figured there was a class not yet hooked into JWLua that would do it.

What you need access to is the class for the "Page format for Parts/Score"
preference data. I'll add that to the next beta.

For now, this should work to change the format anyway:
* Put the page changing code (including the FCPages:LoadAll() statement) in
a loop. If all pages are parsed but already have the correct page size,
break the loop.
* At the end of the loop, update the layout
* Loop back


Best regards,
