Thanks Simon, I just learned my mistake was I needed to start the interactive prompt with bin/myproj-debug.exe. I get the root obj for free, and I even get all the buildout eggs in the path this way. Life is good!
However, I have another question now... In the z3c.form documentation here: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/z3c.form/1.9.0 In the section on Custom Widget Factories (CTRL + F "MyEditForm") Even if I start my interactive prompt with myproj-debug.exe, the following line >>> myEdit = MyEditForm(root[u'srichter'], TestRequest()) gives a KeyError (naturally). I am guessing this refers to some object representing Stephan's logged in credentials? How is this achieved? I have a feeling that if I get that far, I may have all I need for a good while! :) e.
