How do I get this working?

[Richard Chamberlain]

You were very close...

import uerrors
import sys

    def CheckParams():
                if (len(sys.argv)>5) or (len(sys.argv<2):
                            return uerrors.ERR_WRONGPARAMS
                return uerrors.ERR_NOERROR

You had an 'and' in your version, sys.argv is never going to be above 5 and
below 2 therefore it was just returning ERR_NOERROR which was 0.
