    Standalone ZPT and Batch

    I am busy converting a single Zope page to a Python cgi using the
    standalone ZPT implementation from sourceforge. Most of it seems to
    work just fine, but I am finding that although the Batch object is
    available and ported(?), it does not seem to work.

    Whenever I try to access batch/next/first with a short list, the
    renderer complains that next.first is not defined. The ZPT codes looks
    like this

    ....
    batch python:modules['ZUtils'].Batch(...);
    next batch/next
    ....

    <a tal:condition=" next" tal:attributes= "...next/first..."...>

    Looking at Batch.py, it appears that Batch.next is actually a
    LazyNextBatch object, which only defines the Zope-specific __of__
    operator. This makes sense, but I am rather surprised that standalone
    ZTP does not handle this correctly in Expressions.py

    Anyone have any suggestions about how to fix this?

    TIA,
