I'm interested in creating a custom format similar, but more limited, than the structured-text format. Is there a way to accomplish this without hacking on the base Zope code? From the description I found in the Zope documentation, it says that the value of a custom format is the "method name evaluated upon the object to be inserted". If I'm accessing a DTML_method wouldn't this mean that I would have to add something to DTML_Method (or create my own subclass?) Is there a better way to accomplish this task? What I'm trying to do is provide a way for my user to enter textual information without requiring the use of HTML. I want visible paragraphs to be translated into <p></p> delimited paragraphs, standard URL specifications to get translated into real links, and I want to provide a small number of additional formatting options. Any ideas on good ways to accomplish this task would be appreciated. Thanks. James W.
