[MS4W-Users] error with command line tools after MS4W installation

[Jeff McKenna]

Another note is that if you are testing the MS4W 4.0 alpha, be sure to 
install the win32 version of Python (which, could have something to do 
with your original error I believe).  Anyway, lots of options for you to 
try.  Thanks for using MS4W to share your spatial information! :)
