You have to edit a script file if you want to load the MIB definitions
automatically. See the FAQ at

http://www.cs.tu-bs.de/ibr/projects/nm/scotty/FAQ.html

for more details. (You basically add a line like

lappend scotty_mibs att.mib

to /usr/local/lib/scotty/site/init.tcl.)

Scotty currently does not interpret the IMPORT statements. Scotty uses
a global Tcl-Variable scotty_mibs which is a list of all MIBs that
are loaded if nothing else is specified. The order of this list should
reflect the dependencies between various MIBs.
