OK, so I was thinking also... I'm not sure that my changes belong in the DTML parser... not because I'm calling it ZTML, but because I'm introducing a HUGE number of changes to the parser. So, I'm thinking that I should subclass String just like DTML does, and rewrite the pieces as necessary. This would allow me to isolate all the entity and <?ztml ?> handling into a seperate piece without introducing bugs into the existing system... ANyway, so if I do that, how do I access it through Zope? I've not even started to look at that aspect. BTW, it seems this seems to imply that documents have "types" associated with them, perhaps with the following parsers: * DTML * ZTML * XML/XSL * StructuredText * ?RTF? Just a thought to spin on.
