[vtkusers] How to import vtk in python?

[Lin M]

Hi Dr. Thompson,

Thank you!

I tried to add lib and bin folder to the PYTHONPATA but it still failed to
find the module.

Running vtkPython directly leads python command line with correct vtk
module but I'm not very clear about how to run the python test in this way.

PS. I found two executable files vtkWrapPython-6.3.exe and
 vtkWrapPythonInit-6.3.exe. What's the use of them?

Best,
Lin
