We've now got a PyPI mirror setup for use with easy_install and buildout. The host is pypi.netsight.co.uk. To use it add the following line to the [buildout] section of your buildout config file:
index = http://pypi.netsight.co.uk/
You can also use it with easy_install as well:
easy_install -i http://pypi.netsight.co.uk/ foo.bar
If you're in a page template and want to access something a little more complicated without writing a view class, try looking in this egg:
plone.app.layout[version].egg/plone/app/layout/globals/configure.zcml
It lists the global browser classes accessible from any page template (such as @@plone_portal_state)
and points you to the classes where everything is defined.
Some very useful stuff in there (for instance @@plone_tools)
Never knew this before:
grep --color foo bar.txt
will search for 'foo' in the file bar.txt and will highlight the colour. Works on MacOS and FreeBSD (and probabaly Linux).
