You could use the [shell] external to quickly run the script, or rewrite it 
to be a Lua external, which shouldn't be hard. 

But scl2pd.py is intended to be run from the command line. With it, you can
convert all the scales that are part of the Scala software with a single
command:

 scl2pd.py *.scl

After that, you get one file ending in ".scl.tab" for every scale and don't need to run
scl2pd.py again.
