First I hope you don't care if I CC this to the list, since I've forgotten some info which answers your question in my announce I think it's OK, but please forgive me if it's not. On Tue, 24 Jul 2001, Peter Bengtsson wrote:

more about your improvements on load_site

When I upload photos to my site I do that using th load_site.py module because I have Zope 2.3.0 and it doesn't support uploading via the ZMI or in scripts large photos. To save time and not having to click each photo and set the title property I do that with the filename.

naked~My dad naked.jpg is uploaded on the server as an Image object. Then I start a script that converts the image to a Photo object and renames it and gives it a title.

Image: id: naked~My dad naked.jpg title: ...becomes... Photo: id: naked.jpg title: My dad naked

Nifty isn't it. Perhaps some implementation like that in your new load_site? My parser for the id and title is well tested, perhaps you want it (pas grave).

I've forgotten to say it in my announce of the patch: The title property is also set to the original file name this way: title: file:/My dad naked.jpg Perhaps we should discard every path component and the extension to only keep "My dad naked". PS: that's not MY new load_site.py, that's just a patch. I don't plan to become load_site's maintainer... bye, Jerome Alet
