[Zope] How best to copy and paste in pythonscript?

You are, of course, correct.  I wanted Gaute to take a look at the 
actual code and proceed from there.  Docfinder is also a useful approach 
for learning about the system.

If you are a frequent reader of this list, you know that AJ's style is to 
encourage posters to 1) be complete and precise in the questions they post
and 2) provide just enough infomration for the poster to discover the 
answer to his/her post himself.  This is an excellent pedagogical 
strategy but sometimes is frustrating.
