use win32 COM in python

Hello Lin,

You can avoid COM and either get this server as a Python module using
SWIG/Boost.Python/Pyrex ...

You can also use a regular DLL using ctypes package.

However if you *must* use COM then make sure your server has a Dispatch
interface and just use win32com.client.Dispatch to create and use it.

Bye.
