I wasn't aware of the abilities of this script. I used it only for 
debugging and I had some problems with this script until I checked out 
the last cvs 2_7-branch version.

Uhm ... I think I found a bug:

zopectl> reload
Error: 'instancehome' is not a known key name
(line 29 in file:///var/lib/zope/main/etc/zope.conf)
For help, use 
/usr/lib/zope/2.7-branch-23/lib/python/Zope/Startup/zopectl.py -h
Configuration not reloaded

etc/zope.conf:

# Directive: instancehome
#
# Description:
#     The path to the data files, local product files, import directory,
#     and Extensions directory used by Zope.
#
# Required (no default)

# Example:

#    instancehome /home/chrism/projects/sessions

instancehome $INSTANCE
