[Zope] - Direct access with Emacs

[Magnus Lie Hetland]

One of the things that have been mentioned as a "requirement" is using
your favourite text editor to edit the DTML files and then immediately
being able to reload the document in a browser and see the results. If
Zope supports a standard FTP protocol (I'm not considering security
here...) then this could be as simple as using the ange-ftp-mode, no?

It would be as simple as editing the file

  /admin@thezopeftpserver:some/object/with/dtml

and ange-ftp-mode would take care of the get'ing and put'ing for you: To
you it would seem like you just loaded it (C-xf) and saved it (C-xs). It
seems like a brilliant solution to me :)

(Of course, it doesn't do away with the security problem -- maybe there is
some similar solution that is more secure... At least the
editor/update-problem is significantly reduced IMHO)
