LaTeX tabular importer

This simple AppleScript takes clipboard data (e.g., copied from AppleWorks), tries to find out how it is structured (e.g., tab- or comma-delimited), and creates a tabular environment which is pasted into the current LaTeX document.

Currently, this works with TeXShop only, but it might be expanded in the future.

There are a few options the user can choose in dialog boxes; the resulting tabular environment will probably still need some editing by the user.

This script is still in beta state, use at your own risk.
