Where are the "text files"? If in filesystem, plain 
Zope cannot. For security reasons. (/etc/passwd and
co are plain text files too :-)
Usually you dont need to bother because you can 
upload these into Zope. For special cases there
exist several solution ranging from external method
to localfs and extfile products.

Depends on what you really want to do.
