 Hi,

 the /++apidoc++ is the main and greatest source of documentation for the
 zope 3 API, but sometimes I spend a lot of time to find something. So I
 have 3 questions:

 Take an example: Say I've heard about the function getMultiAdapter, and I
 want to know how to use it. So I first go to the apidoc and:

 1) if I don't know which component this function is part of, how do I
 quickly find it?

You can't at the moment. There is no generic search feature at this point.
Actually you can easily search for packages, modules, and classes using the
Code Browser, but not functions and methods. Maybe we should create an
efficient index to search these things too? I would be happy for a detailed
proposal of the features users would like to see for the code browser.


Perhaps Google's new code searching will be some help getting started?

http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=getMultiAdapter+lang%3ApythonbtnG=Search+Code

Certainly there should be ways to narrow this down more effectively, say 
limiting search to a specific body of code (which I have not done).


I've not explored much yet, but already with this Google tool I have found 
several cases where other people are publishing modified versions of 
software that I had originated that I had no idea were out there.  Not that 
I needed to know, but it is interesting to find when someone likes what 
you've done enough to push it toward new limits.

Re: [Zope3-Users] Zope 3 Distilled book update 3

One way is to use the US Patent and Trademark website search.  Here is a 
link to a search for Addison-Wesley in ALL fields there is no mention 
of distilled being registered as a word mark (not trademark, those are 
for logos and such).


http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=tocstate=ntm86k.1.1p_search=searchssp_L=50BackReference=p_plural=yesp_s_PARA1=p_tagrepl%7E%3A=PARA1%24LDexpr=PARA1+AND+PARA2p_s_PARA2=Addison-Wesleyp_tagrepl%7E%3A=PARA2%24ALLp_op_ALL=ANDa_default=searcha_search=Submit+Querya_search=Submit+Query

Or just go to the USPTO home:  http://www.uspto.gov/   and click on 
Trademarks and then Search.


It looks to me like using Distilled is fine here.  If a lawyerly letter 
comes your way asking you to cease and desist someday, write back saying 
Oh, I'm so sorry, but if you can please refer me to the serial number and 
registration number for your U.S. word mark registration with which my use 
of Zope 3 Distilled is in conflict, so that I can refer this to my 
attorneys, I would be ever so grateful.  However I cannot possibly take any 
action based solely on your kind letter alone.  I look forward to hearing 
from you again.   XOX, Baiju.


IANAL,

I recommend you verify that you can use the Distilled name.  I believe
computer book titles of that form are protected by an Addison-Wesley
trademark.


How can I verify this. There are some titles from  Addison-Wesley.

But there is one from Apress also:
