I am trying out mode=tile as detailed at 
[http://mapserver.org/output/tile_mode.html], and actually, it works great! 
Might be able to avoid the pains of WMS completely.

However, it works great with MapServer CGI. What if I want to use MapScript? In 
other words, instead of 

    var urlTemplate = 'http://localhost/cgi-bin/myapp?';
        urlTemplate += 'layers=layer1 layer2&';
        urlTemplate += 'mode=tile&';
        urlTemplate += 'tilemode=gmap&';
        urlTemplate += 'tile={X}+{Y}+{Z}';

I have

    var urlTemplate = 'http://localhost/myapp.cgi?';
        urlTemplate += 'tile={X}+{Y}+{Z}';

and I add mode=tile and tilemode=gmap on the server side. My question is -- 
one, will the above work? and, how do I pass mode=tile and tilemode=gmap and 
the tile={X}+{Y}+{Z} parameters to the program? I didn't see any MapScript 
documentation for these parameters. I need to translate a call such as 
[http://localhost/cgi-bin/myapp?layers=layer1&mode=tile&tilemode=gmap&tile=30+46+7]
 into a MapScript request.
