[Zope] create user from script

[Dennis Allison]

Yes.  But what you want is much simpler.  To implement it, create a form
to capture the new user's name, then, as the action for that form, use the 
API (see the Appendices of The Zope Book and/or the code) to add a new
user.  The critical thing will be something like

	acl = container.restrictedTraverse( <<url of acl_users>> )
	acl.AddUser( name, password, roles, domains )

Not all user folders support adding users dynamically, but if you are
using the default, it does.  See the code for UserFolder to learn what the
defauts are for roles and domains.
