FYI: your wrong. ;) You can search for text in windows by using the "containing text" box in the search window that opens up in explorer when you do a startment / search / files and folders... specify the file type, (if need be) and the directory, and put something in the text.

After reading portal.py, what i understood is that factory_type_information is used in the setup of a CMFSite, by PortalGenerator.setupType, to fill in portal_types tool with the default types. It's a way to customize a basic CMF Site If i want to add y own types, i can define a module sometype.py and add its factory_type_information to portal.factory_type_information otherwise i'll have to add a Factory_type_based_information in portal_types workspace. If i want to use PortalGenerator.setupTypes in my own module to register my type in portal_types, i suppose i'll have to create an instance of PortalGenerator in my module but that i don't need to use PortalGenerator as a base class of my module.
Am i right ? (i'm a newbie so my questions may be simples ones)
I'm still learning a lot about Zope and the CMF myself, but what I found helpful is lots of experimentation and examining Plone's source code. You'll notice their PloneSite subclasses CMFSite. PloneGenerator subclasses CMFDefault.Portal.PortalGenerator. They also have a neat concept of CustomizationPolicy objects.
That's right and that's what i'll need to do : a CustomizationPolicy. I'm examining Plone's source but as a newbie to Python, Zope and Plone, i have to examine many tutorials, books, scripts, etc at a time and i have a serious disability, i'm using W!ndows. Do you know that the search function of this os can't search a string in .py file like unix's grep could do ? So when i'm searching references to functions called from various modules, i must open all the files and search inside each one. So, from time to time i ask questions to have a path or a kick and to not give up. But, by having to search in all modules, i think i'll finally have a large vision of the whole system. Thank's for your help. Andre
Cheers,
