[Zope] manage_addFile

[Annie Private]

Hi. I am trying to move a pdf file from a remote server onto a local Zope 
server. I have an external method that gets it from the remote server into 
/tmp and that part works fine. But I can't get it programmatically uploaded 
into Zope from there.

It seems like every method I've tried to get a file object has given me a 
pointer inside the file instead. That, or I end up with a new object whose 
contents are only a string, such as the filename.
Here's one version I tried.

try:
  fyl=urllib.open(fromurl)
  folder.manage_addFile(filename, fyl, mime)
except:
  return errormsg

Part of the problem is that the files will be large binary pdf files, so I 
really want to avoid reading them out line by line.

I'm on Red Hat Linux 7.2, Zope 2.5.0, python 2.1.2

I'd really appreciate your help on this. Thanks,

Annie
