[Grok-dev] where to put the code that can be run automatically when groks are started up?

[TonyXu]

Thank you, Wijbrand.

Your solution is perfect, and I have finished my task.

BTW, I have ever noticed the even mechanism, but I only read the Grok
official documentations, and they
don't mention the 'IDatabaseOpenedEvent' event. The lesson to me is that if
we can't find the answer
from grok's documentations, we should look for the answer from zope's.
