Makes any link to a file open in a new tab by adding 'target="_blank"' to the link.

== Description ==

This plugin enqueues a simple jQuery script that looks for any anchor tag that has an href property to something with a file extension of 1-5 characters and makes it open in a new window or tab.

[see script here](https://gist.github.com/abrudtkuhl/94a6f58d1f76439fa6fb)

This means any link to a .pdf, .txt, .ppt, .doc, .xls, .xlst, etc will automatically have the property 'target="_blank"' added to it so it opens in a new window or browser tab.

e.g.

1. Upload `wp-open-files-new-window.php` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
