 * FYI, the php code breaks on some installation which require the full prepend 
   tag:
 * <?php
 * just the:
 * <?
 * in the code breaks on some boxes. I did a search and replace on the code and 
   then was able to install the plugin…

 * that sounds more like the configuration of your machine. If you check out your
   php.ini file, there’s an option for “short_open_tag”
 * here’s the line from my php.ini
 * short_open_tag = On ; allow the <? tag. otherwise, only <?php and <script> tags
   are recognized.

 * This is very bad PHP programming form. Many if not most production servers are
   not configured for the short open tag.
 * Bad boys.
