[Zope] Re: delete a folder without ZMI?

[Patrick Price]

As usual, finding the right Zope documentation is a nightmare.  I have 
no idea where to find documentation on the "Emergency User" in Zope

I searched Google for Administrator's Guide, and find some obscure links.

I follow a link and find the www.zope.org/DocProjects/AdminGuide page.

It then directs me to look at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/zope-admin/  and I get a 404 "Page not 
found"

Zope is showing itself to be a real pain in the ass!  I can still code 
stuff faster in PHP than messing around with Zope and its complexity and 
problems.  :-(

Thanks for trying to help, I would give you the traceback but there 
isn't one on the page with the error I gave you.
