[Zope] Adding users via external method

[Timothy Grant]

Following up on my own message...

OK, so now I have a lovely external method that reads a datafile, returns a
list of tuples that I can then use in a DTML Method to add my users. So far
so good.

I have come upon some situations where I also need to add Roles. I can find
nothing archived nor on the Zope site about programmatically adding Roles.
Can anyone assist me?

Thanks.
