[ZPatterns] ZPatterns not TTW, step 2

[Steve Spicklemire]

Hi RDM,

	I've used an External method to do this as well, something like:

import string

def setObjectAttrs(self, object, attrs):
     attrList = []
     for k in attrs.keys():
         if hasattr(object, k):
             setattr(object, k, attrs[k])
             attrList.append(k)

     return "Updated attributes " + string.join(attrList, ',') + "." + \
			" Orig attrs: " + `attrs` + "."

So a ZClass wouldn't be strictly necessary.
