[FWTools] No module named _gdal error with ver 1.3.1

[ecollage at gmail.com]

Hi Travis

Thanks for the pointer - I had the issue with both WinXP and with Linux, but
both are working fine now.

However, I do remember that the .py commands would work with versions up to
1.0.0a4 on WinXP - has there been a change I've missed?

Thanks again
Best
Sujoy

Sujoy,
Are you running fwtools on windows or linux.  I think I had this same
issue on linux but fixed it by setting my PATH to the FWTools bin_safe
directory
PATH=/path/to/FWTool/bin_safe:$PATH
if you are running windows you have to run the gdal_merge.bat commands
