[Qgis-user] Mapfile Tools

[Derrick Frese]

Hi Richard,

I've downloaded the sources and see a bunch of python scripts.  I'm running QGIS 1.6.0 on Windows XP.  Is there a way to point to these files that are stored locally to install the Mapfile Tools?  Also, is python-mapscript something I need to download or a setting to turn on in QGIS? Not familiar with it.

Thank you for your help.

Derrick

Hi Derrick,

you can find sources:

https://github.com/sourcepole/qgis-mapfile-tools 

One of the authors is Pirmin Kalberer which is seen on this list pretty
often also...
One of the things that you really have to have for this plugin to work
is python-mapscript.

Depending on your Operating System or installation type this is
installed in different ways.

So please be a little more specific:
- which version/OS
- what is the problem

This makes it easier to provide help or suggestions,

Regards,
