The new version uses a unified symbol file format which means you can store
all symbols in one file. This allows for inline definitions (i.e. within a mapfile) of
symbols and more straight forward mapscript access. Anyway here's what's needed
to switch:

  1) SHADESET, MARKERSET, LINESET are gone and replaced by SYMBOLSET
  2) the keywords SHADESET, MARKERSET, LINESET need to be removed from
      symbol files, and so should the last END keyword
  3) you can "cat" them all together 

That should do it.

Hi all!

	I am trying the new version of mapserver - beta 3.012 (nightly) on RedHat
Linux 6.2. Everything goes well but mapserver does not recognize the keywors
SHADESET, MARKERSET, LINESET in the map file.
There is the error message:

msLoadMap(): Unknown identifier. (SHADESET):(9)

What is wrong? New syntax? Can anybody tell me?

Thank you

Stepan Kafka
