 * Hi,
 * I’m trying to put a login button in my header that will then display “log out”
   once the user is signed in. Basically I want to recreate what the meta sidebar
   widget login link does. I figure I may be able to use the code from the meta 
   widget but I can’t figure out where to find it in the installation. Can anyone
   point me in the right direction?
 * Thanks.
