[Zope] I'm clumsy with XML-RPC.

[Kyler Laird]

It's been a long time since I poked at Zope with XML-RPC.  I was hoping
to start using it for a very public set of tools, but the only things I
can do right now are very clumsy.

I have a Python Script, "test", in Zope with parameters "first=None,
second=None".  The Script just "prints" and returns the values.

Trying what would seem to be an elegant way of calling it,
	Zope_server.test(first='foo', second='bar')
yields an error.
	TypeError: __call__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'second'

O.k., so I fall back to an old script I wrote that uses Meerkat (which
still works!) and see that I can pass it a dictionary.  Try again.
	Zope_server.test({'first': 'foo', 'second': 'bar'})
	"first={'second': 'bar', 'first': 'foo'}\nsecond=None\n"
That still doesn't give me access to "second".

I've been looking in the obvious places for examples with multiple
parameters but I've found none.  Any pointers?  (I think I originally
worked from an article by Jon Udell at Byte but it seems to have
disappeared.)  

The obvious alternative is to ditch XML-RPC and just use plain HTTP. 
Zope knows how to handle HTTP well enough and I'm quite comfortable with
it, so it's almost my preference.  I just thought that XML-RPC seemed
like a cleaner way to handle this (and I'd recommended it for some other
uses so I thought I should get some real experience with it).

Thank you.
