Massimo,

I'm unfamiliar with this extension, but all of the extension scripts
I've worked work essentially the same way -- you install the client
and then add them to the client as per the documentation. Rehashing
the documentation is not something I'm planning to do on the mailing
list, but I'm happy to help if you read it and something is unclear.

=R
