And in brief, a quick way to tell it'll break will be the lack of a literal
"jQuery" in the plugin, and the presence of lots of dollar signs.

But note that even in noConflict mode, this works fine:

  jQuery(function ($) { ... });

The code inside the function will be run at the document.load event
(the right time to start running things), with $ inside the body
as the jQuery's $, not Prototype's $.
