[rt-users] can I make Shredder Plugins use strict PLEASE?

[Jo Rhett]

So I've been chasing this bug around in the code for over an hour, and  
all I can say at this point is I REALLY HATE GLOBAL VARIABLES.

There is absolutely no reason for having subroutines modify global  
variables, and it makes the code darn hard to debug.  If I was to do  
the work to make all of these modules strict, would you accept the  
patches?
