  WordPress uses a large # of PHP scripts. The problem
  on our server is that every PHP script must contain
  the following as the first line:

  #!/usr/local/bin/php

  Does anyone have a quick sed-based Unix script to
  achieve this, or a way around it? Thanks.

  OOPS! You seem to be in the wrong place. WordPress.com is a MU (multi-user) blogging platform. We run on a different code base than the version you can download from http://wordpress.org and you will get different answers to your questions here. The forum for self hosted and web hosted wordpress blogs is located over here http://wordpress.org/support You may want to take a few moments and read this description about the different versions of WordPress software.
  Happy blogging! :)

  Especially since we don’t have access to the PHP code. :)

  TT, I edited (or will edit shortly) your cut and paste a bit. I hope you don’t mind. :)

  edit: I still don’t totally like how I edited it but I think you can see how I’m trying to give a reason why they’re on the wrong site.

  Thanks – I was unaware of the difference. It seems that
  I have an issue only with the wordpress.org download
  since I see now that wordpress.com provides the blog
  capability transparently to the blogger without setting
  up a server.

  @drmike
  Who me – mind the editing? Of course not, it’s just what I was looking for [she purred]. ;)

  Gotta admit that I would like to work in the ‘Read me first before posting’ bit into that description link as well.

  Suggestions?
