added runtime parameters for guided reports. Online help:
Can I have run-time defined parameters?
Yes, you can: there is a specific syntax that Koha will understand as 'ask for values when running the report'. The syntax is <<Question to ask|authorised_value>>.
The << and >> are just delimiters. You must put << at the beginning and >> at the end of your parameter
The Question to ask will be displayed on the left of the string to enter.
The authorised_value can be omitted if not applicable. If it contains an authorised value category, or <strong>branches</strong> or <strong>itemtype</strong> or <strong>categorycode</strong>, a list with the Koha authorised values will be displayed instead of a free field
Note that you can have more than one parameter in a given SQL
Note that entering nothing at run time won't probably work as you expect. It will be considered as "value empty" not as "ignore this parameter". For example entering nothing for : "title=<<Enter title>>" will display results with title='' (no title). If you want to have to have something not mandatory, use "title like <<Enter title>>" and enter a % at run time instead of nothing
Sample :
SELECT surname,firstname FROM borrowers WHERE branchcode=<<Enter patrons library|branches>> AND surname like <<Enter filter for patron surname (% if none)>>

execute_query now refactored, returns reliable results, does
zero presentation-layer crap. Arguments reduced, client scripts
adapted to new API and performance improved. Text::CSV now used
to generate CSV output, ensuring portability, encoding and accuracy.
Replaced tools/runreport.pl with misc/cronjobs/runreport.pl:
~ security fixed
~ documentation improved
~ TODO: finish sendmail option.
Bug 3077 also fixed.

The old location of runreport.pl was under tools, leaving it exposed
to web requests. This is a security flaw since it does NOT check any
Auth and allows the user to request any Saved Report be run. This is
not a problem under misc/crontab/ and it suggests the more appropriate use.
Guided.pm is not fixed here (see bug 3066), but it is prepared to be fixed
and made compatible with runreport as detailed in the perldoc.

Clear all non-alphanum chars at the end of an sql query.
Use ESCAPE=HTML to escape double quotes in csv export

This repurposes the Reports module for general reports, and moves its functionality to a different module, Reports::Guided. It also updates all of the reports that can export to correctly treat the 'tabulation' value of the 'delimiter' syspref.
