[gdal-dev] help needed with pygdaltools library, documentation sparse

I have not even gotten to see that anything is being ignored because I have not yet added any options.  My first attempt was with adding skipfailures, but I can’t add any of the options I have listed because I have no idea how to.  I thought it would be gdal_tools.config_options() but I get pylint tells me it is not callable

-nln is being ignored because the data layer you're -updating -appending to exists. You can't rename a layer if it has a name. Remove -nln option

Next you are trying to write a collection as a linestring. Use -explodecollections (if exists in your install) and/or use -nlt PROMOTE_TO_MULTI

Try not to use -skipfailures
