I think there is a misunderstanding. When you are putting it into the
template itself, you typically don't need to do anything. You just add
it to the template.

Using zope.pagetemplate. ;)

More seriously, zope.pagetemplate has two parsing modes: HTML and XML.
Nobody actually uses the XML mode (pt files start with an 
declaration, all tal/metal namespaces must be explicitly defined using
xmlns:tal=url-that-nobody-can-remember).  The HTML mode allows you to
write Javascript just like you would do it in a browser, with no extra
XML-quoting:

  

Does this not work for you?  I'm currently looking at a Zope3 app that
does precisely this in its working page templates.
