Installation

To install quintagroup.seoptimizer into the global Python environment (or a workingenv), using a traditional Zope 2 instance, you can do this:

Create a file called quintagroup.seoptimizer-configure.zcml in the /path/to/instance/etc/package-includes directory. The file should only contain this:
```
<include package="quintagroup.seoptimizer" file="configure.zcml" />
```
Create a file called quintagroup.seoptimizer-overrides.zcml in the /path/to/instance/etc/package-includes directory. The file should only contain this:
```
<include package="quintagroup.seoptimizer" file="overrides.zcml" />
```

Alternatively, if you are using zc.buildout and the plone.recipe.zope2instance recipe to manage your project, you can do this:

Add quintagroup.seoptimizer to the list of eggs to install, e.g.:

[buildout]
....
eggs =
     ...
     quintagroup.seoptimizer

Tell the plone.recipe.zope2instance recipe to install a ZCML slug:

[instance]
...
zcml =
    quintagroup.seoptimizer
    quintagroup.seoptimizer-overrides

Re-run buildout, e.g. with:
```
$ ./bin/buildout
```
