Hi there,

I'd like to announce the availabilit of ZenMagick 0.9.3 for zen-cart.

ZenMagick is a zen-cart add-on that includes:
1) An object-oriented API to access the zen-cart database (anywhere in your code).
Example:

$product = ZMProducts::instance()->getProductForId(3);
echo $product->getName();

2) An alternative templating system
Building on the API the template files are a lot simpler that their zen-cart counterparts. The code is (also) object-oriented and includes a fill MVC stack. Also includes are:
- a (form) validation subsystem
- plugins
- support for many popular zen-cart mods (IH2, etc)

There are also unique ZenMagick features like:
- checkout without registering
- support for OpenID
- page caching
- Support for Smarty templates

ZenMagick is licensed under the GPL.

Cheers, mano
(disclousure: I am the main/only developer of ZenMagick)
