[Mapserver-users] saveImage --> save in 4.0

[Simpson, Andrew]

Thanks for yet another response.  
You guys are doing a great job with Mapserver.  
Its been an outstanding collection of software and am looking forward to
digging in to all the new functionality.
Just wanted to give you guys a 'that a boy', since usually all you probably
hear is gripes.

Now on to my griping, here is one of my attempts:

	my $formatobj = new mapscript::outputFormatObj('png');  
	$formatobj->{transparent} = $mapscript::MS_ON;
	$formatobj->setOption('interlace', $mapscript::MS_ON);

And to assign the object I tried

	$map->{outputformat} = $formatobj;

and 

	$map->setOutputFormat( $formatobj );

Thanks again,
Drew.
