Python MapScript module working

[Emil Zegers]

Hello,

I've been away for a few days hence the late reply.

Python MapScript is running fine now on my system.

First I also installed Python and the "None" package on a Windows 2000
system, works at once.

Then on the XP machine where I had problems before it also works now
(nothing was changed except a few reboots).

Thanks for all the advice.

Regards,

Emil
