[Zope] Info about a Z Gadfly Database in a DTML doc

[Alexander Staubo]

Iirc, Gadfly has internal tables/views just like, say, MSSQL or Sybase
has.

And iirc, they're called things like

__table_names__
__datadefs__
__columns__
__indices__
__indexcols__

and so forth. Check the Gadfly documentation and/or source code for more
information.
