Python Script usually refers to an object in Zope that is a script written in Python, the new name for this is "Script (Python)". An external method is a script written in Python, but is instead stored in the file system, the name for this "External Method".

Is PythonScript just another name for an External Method (done in Python) or other?

They are not arbitrary python scripts, though. You can't use a lot of the standard libraries, apparently, and you pass in things from the calling dtml page using the "context" object. There are various restrictions. There's still a place for good old external methods. Cheers, Tom P
