[Zope] New Install

[Chris McDonough]

Don't change the z2.py file.  It will get you in trouble. ;-)

Instead, use the switches specified in z2.py (-D, -W, -X, etc.) as
arguments to the "start" script.

Remove the -D switch inside the start script to prevent Zope from
remaining attached to the console.
