This version will use the JavaScript module and I<libjs> from
Mozilla, if it finds JavaScript installed. Otherwise it will use
the JE module as its JavaScript interpreter, so that CPAN or
CPANPLUS can do the whole installation.

This module is being developed to provide access for Perl scripts
to the Proxy Auto Config format from Netscape. The original
description is now archived at:
http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Web/autoproxy.html
HTTP::ProxyPAC allows use of a Proxy Auto Configuration file to
find an appropriate proxy for a URL. You can use a .pac file
from Firefox, IE or Opera, or a wpad.dat file obtained via the
WPAD protocol (see 2nd link in DESCRIPTION).
