Thank you for the comment, that's a good point. I think my original intention was that the author should add the extra information when he expects other folks to take advantage of his script.

Hmm ....

But by that point juerd's suggestion about using POD becomes even more relevant. The long script header thing is really a digression from the main point, and has caused a little bit of bad blood in the threads already, so I think I will take that out completely.
