What exactly is your problem? Hard to tell without having some idea what
you've done so far, what you've compiled (eg., have you actually built the
translator executable), and where the script is going wrong.

Here's a tip on getting net packages to work: Do a search and find out
where it is, get the package, *READ* the documentation, try your best
to build it and get it work after *reading* the documentation. Only after
all the fails, there's always various mailing lists and usenet resources.
