Looks very interesting indeed. A couple of quibbles...

I can't get it to run! More in a minute.

First, in global.py it might be a good idea before the sys.path.insert(...) to put a comment like

# YOU MUST CHANGE THE FOLLOWING LINE TO POINT TO THE /lib/python OF YOUR # DISTRIBUTION. sys.path.insert(0, "/home/jpenny/zope/Zope-2.1b2-src/lib/python")

This was needed to find xmlrpclib, since I then had to patch and include xmlrpclib with global.py, it is no longer needed, you can just whack it and put the included (patched) xmlrpclib in the same dir as global.py (usual ~/.cedit/)

There is an obvious spelling mistake in line 84 it says: key("x", ControlMask, "open_zope__resource()") but line 42 defines def zope_open_resource()

oops. but ... uhm... it's not in my file. wierd. Jus take out the extra underscore.

Now, after putting xmlrpc.py in the appropriate spot I get a message on opening cooledit that says File "/home/jpenny/.cedit/global.py", line 8, in ? import xmlprclib File "/home/jpenny/.cedit/xmlrpclib.py", line 54, in ? import operator, string, time ImportError: /usr/lib/python1.5/lib-dynload/operato.so: undefined symbol: _Py_NoneStruct

Uhh... are you using Python 1.5.2? It's a mystery to me otherwise....

If I strike ctrl-x in the window nothing happens.

Before any of this stuff work, you have to run 'Comand' 'Reload Python Scripts'. I don't know why, I assume it's a bug. Note that all the key binding and menus are completely arbirary, I hope to colaborate a bit with the author of cooledit to make things more zopeishly cool.

But, if I got to Command/Reload Python Scripts, control-x gives the expected dialog box. File "<string>", line 1 in ? None File "/home/jpenny/.cedit/global.py", line 51, in zope_open_resource conn = xmlrpclib.Server(url, user, passw) AttributeError: Server

This is probably because your xmlrpclib is acting strangely. -Michel
