Nitro, it's not a script. It's a program that changes .ns1 files made by NetStumbler into .wpt files that you can open using MapSource.
Once you've recorded one or more networks with the GPS active, save the NetStumbler log to something like c:\pathtons1files\filetochange.ns1
Then, you just type in something like "convert c:\pathtons1files\filetochange.ns1 c:\PathToWhereYouWantIt\fileToLoadInMSource.wpt"
Once you have the .wpt file you import it to MapSource through File -> Import...
Go to the directory the .wpt was saved in (c:\PathToWhereYouWantIt, if you thought I really meant that) and select "PCX5 Waypoint Files (*.wpt)" as the "Files of type". The file should show up and when you open it the waypoints should appear in the Waypoints list. The name of the network that was found will be in the Comments field and I think they're numbered in the order they were found with a WEP- prefixed on the encrypted networks.
