It is possible to use PageTemplates without Zope, not ZPT (short for 
Zope Page Templates).  With ExtensionClass, TAL, ZTUtils, and 
PageTemplates on your Python path, you should be able to:

>>> from PageTemplates.PageTemplate import PageTemplate
>>> pt = PageTemplate()
 >>> pt.write('''<p tal:define="x options/x"
...             tal:content="python:x+1">???</p>''')
 >>> print pt(x=1)
<p>11</p>

 >>>

Cheers,

Evan @ 4-am & Zope
