Any ideas on whether or not it is possible to import from an

Based on the source-code to zipfile.py on my Debian machine, it looks like the zipfile.ZipFile constructor takes a "file" parameter. It then checks if it's a string (isinstance() of basestring) and opens that file if it is; otherwise, it assumes it's a file-like object and uses that, so in theory, you should be able to do something like

  fp = cString(...)
  zf = zipfile.ZipFile(fp, ...)

and it should Just Work(tm).
