[Zope] Using Zope pooled connections from Python scripts

[Tim Couper]

Hi

I'm an experienced Python developer who's looking for
a Python-compatible web engine for developing apps
(rather than Apache/mod-python). I've played with Zope
and it looks like it could well fit the bill :-)

I have a question about pooled database connections.
There's a connection object within Zope which is
useable by ZSQL, which I take to be a pooled
connection. I'd like to use this same pooled
connection within a Python Script or Extension. Is
this possible? I've tried, within a script, to assign

conn=context.MyConnection

which does return a connection object, but I can't
create a cursor on this object. Can I use the
already-opened connection. Any pointers would be
appreciated :-)
