[Zope] Programmatically adding LocalFS objects

[abg@comco-inc.com]

Solved my own problem...

Create the following External Method:

<code>
from Products.LocalFS.LocalFS import LocalFS
from Products.LocalFS.LocalFS import manage_addLocalFS

def addLocalFSInstance(self, id, path):
	ob = LocalFS('file_attachments', '', path, None, None)
	ob.id = id
	self._setObject(id, ob)
</code>

To call it via DTML:

<dtml-call "addLocalFSInstance('foobar', 'C:/foobar/')">
