Package README (CVS ver. 1.1)

This is a very simple wrapper around the stock Zope File product that allows you
to do python string formatting on your file body. Our immediate use case is
dynamic CSS files: no more DTML CSS files in Plone! Yay!

Here's how it works:

  - There is an additional property called 'values' which is a list of paths to
    objects that return dictionaries.

  - Those paths are restrictedTraversed and a dictionary is built from the
    dictionaries they return.

  - The paths are prioritized top to bottom, so that items returned by calling
    the first path override items with the same key returned by subsequent
    paths.

  - The only special character is '%(', which can be escaped thus: '%%('.


String formatting is documented here:
