Ah I hadn't realized that when people spoke of ZPT they were referring
to a specific package, rather I thought they meant Zope itself. This
will be a good opportunity to see how my current templates and scripts
work when I drop in another implementation.

And seeing as my current application involves analyzing SAS output in
Python, I'll take this as a sign. ;)
