Hi Phil,
Are you using php-cgi.exe ?
If so type:
php-cgi.exe -h for help
It lists amongst others the -d option.
With this option you can tell PHP beforehand to set a certain value for
anything that you might encounter in php.ini, like short_open_tags.
If this does for you what you want, you only have to change the way you call
php-cgi instead of changing all the scripts.
Hope that helps.
Good luck. (Migrations are always a pain.)
