Using TAL and ZPT, I would like to define a global
variable myVar, and then later on in the page
add 1 to myVar, e.g.  myVar = myVar + 1.
How can I modify a variable in TAL? I know how to
modify a tag using REPLACE, ATTRIBUTES etc., but I
want to modify a variable that I have previously defined.
Just re-define the variable in terms of the old one. Here's a quick 
example:

<div tal:define="xx python:4">
This is the original: <span tal:replace="xx">orig</span><br>
This is the new: <span tal:define="xx python:xx*2" 
tal:replace="xx">orig</span><br>
</div>
