[Zope] How to count files in a folder?

[Andy McKay]

objectIds is much faster since it just a property of the container, where as
objectValues actually goes and gets each object inside the container. You
wont notice it until you get large numbers of objects though...

<dtml-var "_.len(objectIds())">

Cheers.
