The program will search Ebay for
items of interest and send you the results as an e-mail, HTML
or CSV file, or all 3 if required.
Ebay have a saved search facility which is OK but sends
one email for every item and only runs once a day.
The code is a re-work of Hack 17
in the O'reilly book Ebay Hacks 1st Edition, which failed
to work on Windows
after the Perl Module WWW::Search::Ebay had been updated.
Still worked under Linux though.
