[Zope] External method writing to a log

[Martin Dougiamas]

I want to create an external method to append to a log file
(for almost every access to the Zope site).

Obviously opening and closing files this often is going to 
get a bit silly.

Is there a way to keep a file open for the whole time 
that the Zope server is running?  Or do I need to create
some completely separate OS-level process that handles 
the file, and just gets called by the external method?

Cheers,
Martin
