They have. However, "stdin/stdout/stderr" have not much worth in "server mode". "server mode" means that there is no "terminal" where this IO comes from is directed to. You can change Zope's startup script and then redirect the standard IO channels (stdin/out/err) to files (we do that occasionally, to catch messages written by external components). Or, you can start Zope in the "foreground". In both cases, your "External Method" can use "stdout/stderr" (use of "stdin" is very doubtful) to provide messages to use. -- Dieter
