[Mapserver-users] (no subject)

[Aaron Kreider]

I'm trying to convert my data into a format that can be used by Mapserver
(or more specifically Mapscript). The data currently resides in a regular
mysql table.

Does Mapserver only use shape files? And if so, how do I create a shape
file?  I've searched to find free utilities (I do not want to buy Arcview
3) that will do it for me or to try and find an explanation of what the
format is (so I could do it myself), but haven't found anything.

I'd appreciate help on this.
