First, make sure you have a subdirectory "Extensions" in your Zope
installation.
Here's the directory listing for mine. Make sure that "Extensions" is
there.
Extensions access lib utilities wo_pcgi.py zpasswd.py
LICENSE.txt doc pcgi var wo_pcgi.pyc zpasswd.pyc
README.txt import start w_pcgi.py z2.py
ZServer inst stop w_pcgi.pyc z2.pyc
Using a text editor, create a new file inside "Extensions" called
"D_date.py".
Put the code of the external method into D_date.py. Save it.
If you're on a unix system, make sure that you add the folder and add
the file as the appropriate user. This is often "nobody" or "zope".
>From your Zope management web pages, add an external method to the root
of your zope instance. Let's call it "D_date". (You can call it anything
you want, so long as it is a valid zope id.)
Fill in "D_date" (without the quotes) as both the python module name,
and the function name.
