_ is just the name of a dictionary which contains the context (?) - in
Python, you access dictionaries by giving the key and it returns the value,
so, dictionary[key] = value

I recommend 'the Quick Python Book' by Harms & MacDonald.  The Zope book
assumes you know Python already, and you should - it's not that hard to
learn.
