 * Used this theme before with no problems. New install without touching anything
   gives me:
    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home/xxx/public_html/
   wp-content/themes/evolve/library/functions/options.php on line 1 Trouble is ALL
   the options file code is on line 1 No additional plug ins installed. [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/evolve](http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/evolve)

 * Just check that line 1.
 * Parse error means its not a serious error just syntax error…

 * Yeah, but the whole file is on line 1 (which may be part of the problem).

 * That was the problem – options.php was getting scrambled when ftp’d. Pasted in
   correct format and all is well.
