No takers on this one, eh?

I'm going to make it simpler. I'm using the `s' method in shipping.asc. In
order to compute the shipping charge, I need to know what items are in the
cart. I tried to get at them with @{$Safe{items}} but that array seems to be
empty.

Here's a sample of what I need to be able to do:

--- catalog.cfg ---
Sub <<EOF
sub myship {
  my ($method,$pricetotal)=@_;
  my $shipping;
  # This counts unique items rather than total, but you get the idea
  if(scalar @{$Safe{items}} > 10) {
    $shipping=$pricetotal * .05;
  } else {
    $shipping=$pricetotal * .06;
  }
}
EOF

--- shipping.asc ---
default USA     price   0       9999999 s wolfship ;usa, ;@@TOTAL@@
