It looks like they just wrote it out replacing each character (letter) 
with its octal value. You can go somewhere like http://asciitable.com/ 
to translate this stuff manually. If you want to parse it with PHP, you 
can use something like chr():

http://php.net/chr

I guess it's a similar idea to rot13 - it makes casual observation 
impossible, so someone has to actually want to read the code. Maybe they 
use vulgarities as variable names. :-)
