I just showed you how to add items into the cart.  You said that you
already had a "hash of item and qty" so I assumed that you just needed
to know how to add this to the cart.

None of the catalog.cfg configuration directives, such as "AutoModifier",
"SeparateItems" etc. will be honoured by the above code as it bypasses
normal Interchange operation.  You can define whatever additional hash
keys/values you need before pushing the hashref onto the appropriate
cart array.

You may find the [dump] tag useful when determining which hash keys an
ordinary, Interchange-created, cart entry contains.
