=======================

admin authorship
  Applying this perm to a role grants the following to users in that
  role (administrators) the ability to use this modules features on
  any given node.
  
user use authorship
  This allows a site administrator let regular users manage the 
  display of their own name (trusted users). Create a role and 
  set this perm to that role. Then, users in that role will be
  able to manage the display of their name in much the same way
  site administrators can but only for their own posts.

Admin >> Settings >> Authorship
===============================

The profile variable name used to store the real name: 
  When the profile module is enabled a site admin can use it to gather
  additional variable data on a "per user" basis. You should enter in
  this text field the VARIABLE NAME that matches an already defined
  variable in the profile module. This will assumed to be the "Real Name"
  of the user. The value the user enters into the profile for this variable
  will be used for the display name on the node.
  
Select the default operation by content-type
  You will be presented with all the available content-types you currently
  have setup on your system. For each content-type you can decide whether
  this module is active or whether to just use the drupal default username.
  
  Check the checkboxes for those content-types that you wish to enable
  the authorship module. Once enabled, the following logic is used to
  decide what action to take regarding rewriting the username:
  
    1) If admin or privileged user has entered free text, use, else
    2) If user has a profile textfield enetered that matches the
       authorship module as above, use, else
    3) fallback to using the drupal username (the default)
