[Zope] I want to script in Python and not Zope-Python

[tom smith]

Hi all,

I'm a big fan of python AND zope, but I'm a little unclear about how the two
really sit together.

 Is there any way to let python scripts to have access to all the bits and
bobs I've got going with python, like MySQL (or Tk even) rather than have to
deal with python-in-zope.

I basically just want to ..

import urllib

...And don't want to muck about with external methods. I want FULL python
power within zope.

Cheers

tom
