+The Zope External Editor is a new way to integrate Zope more seamlessly with
+client-side tools. It has the following features:
+ - Edit objects locally, directly from the ZMI.
+ - Works with any graphical editor application that can open a file from the
+ command line, including: emacs, gvim, xemacs, nedit, gimp, etc.
+ - Automatically saves changes back to Zope without ending the editing
+ session.
+ - Associate any client-side editor application with any Zope object by
+ meta-type or content-type. Both text and binary object content can be
+ edited.
+ - Locks objects while they are being edited. Automatically unlocks them when
+ the editing session ends.
+ - Can add file extensions automatically to improve syntax highlighting or
+ file type detection.
+ - Works with basic auth, cookie auth and Zope versions. Credentials are
+ automatically passed down to the helper application. No need to
+ reauthenticate.
+ - https support (Openssl required)
