[Zope] Re: Parsing a file through a Python script

[Pierre Godefroy]

Thanks, but it does not work as it says I am unauthorized in this 
context (valid only only in an external script).

However I uploaded the file through a form and had no problem 
(readlines() passed through without any warning) :

file = REQUEST.form['file_attachment']
for line in file.readlines():
....

Which is kind of strange.

The issue is, I would like to work on a very big file and there may be 
problems with this. I would like to to access the file as it is already 
stored in the ZODB.

Any other idea?
