Displays the contents of a text file as a widget

== Description ==
This simple plugin allows you to display the contents of a text file as a widget, in any widgetized area provided by your theme (eg Sidebar)

There are no configuration options for this plugin - all configuration (such as there is) is done by the widget settings.

Only text is displayed - HTML is stripped out.

End-of-line characters are displayed as HTML \"Breaks\" 


== Installation ==
There are three possibilities:

*Use the standard Wordpress Plugins > "Add New" procedure (Recommended)
or

*Download the plugin file from Wordpress.org and the Upload the Zip file

Add Plugin > Upload

or

*Download the plugin file from Wordpress.org, then manually upload the unzipped folder (text-file-widget) into wp-content/plugins

Then

*Activate the plugin 


Now there will be a \"text file widget\" in the Appearance>Widgets section. Drag this to a widget location, and tell it which file you want to display and what title to give it (or none)

You can have multiple instances displaying different files. 

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
Why is HTML stripped out?
