[Zope] os.system() - problem when using with lynx browser in linux

[Jim Whitman]

Yes - it's a bit odd, perhaps, but I want the Lynx output because it's 
exactly that - the output from a text-based browser - it shows you 
what your web pages look like in exactly that medium. It's didactic - 
but its for teaching and learning, so geared to doing odd things :-)

I've since tried swapping Zope's os.py and os.pyc for my own python 
installation's os.py etc. but this does not effect any change. So, 
perhaps it's a Zope configuration thing - is it about security, do you 
think? I know that there's only a very limited set of options if you 
create a script within Zope - has it got something to do with this, do 
you think?
