I'm trying to code a python interface to freetds. I'm coming across these
pitfalls:

- I can't find the api documented. Using:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dblibc/dbc_
pdc02_0vmr.asp blindly.

- Wanted to use python mysql module as a template. Mysql uses two objects:
connection and result, where tds only uses dbprocess. So analogy with
mysql is gone.

- Can't find any cut and paste example programs for linux. (So I can make
sure that the thing is really working).

- Not sure wich api to use: dblib, ctlib or tds?

- I see only information for users (people that only need to install the
package) at the website almost nothing for people who want to write a
program.

Did any of you already make a start with a python interface? (I saw an empty
chapter 'python' in the documentation)

Any suggestions?
