[hobbit] alert question

Have a read of the hobbit-alerts man page to get you staretd on how alert
scripts work.

Your script will need to read in the message from the environment variable
and do a replace of all the found &colour strings with a URL to each of the
coloured gifs from the hobbit web server. You may need to ensure the message
is sent as a valid html message etc so it works in your email client.

You will also need to reproduce the subject line etc using the env variables
that hobbit defines.

Cheers

Phil
