[Zope-dev] Using """string""" idiom in dtml

[Jim Sanford]

You've got my vote. Being able to use """ would solve alot of my dtml coding
headaches.

How easy would it be to allow """python strings""" inside DTML tag
attributes?

I'm thinking particularly of situations like:

  <dtml-var "'''<img src="foo.gif">''' * 12">

Currently, you need to mess about with _.chr(34) and string
concatenation.

The triple-quote idiom looks clearer to my eyes.
