BackTalk to Document The Zope Book (2.6 Edition)/Installing and Starting Zope

A comment to the paragraph below was recently added via http://zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/InstallingZope.stx#2-19

---------------

    To start Zope, "cd" into to the directory in which you installed
    Zope and invoke the shell script named "*start*".  Here is an
    example of this invocation and its typical output::

      chrism@saints:~$ cd Zope-2.5.1-linux2-x86
      chrism@saints:~/Zope-2.5.1-linux2-x86$ ./start

       Zope, installed as a source distribution into /usr/local/zope, has no such 'start' script. I eventually
       discovered that one is supposed to use the 'runzope' script that's in the 'bin' subdirectory of the instance
       directory. It's worth nothing that the zope.conf used is located in the 'etc' subdirectory of the instance
       directory.

       Zope, from a source distribution is installed into /opt/Zope-2.7 and the instance directory is in
       /opt/Zope-2.7/skel but I cannot find the 'start' or 'run' sript in it, only a sript called 'runzope.in' can
       be found. And it is not written in the correct form that it cannot be executed.
