=head1 NAME
HTTP::Cookies::Wget - access to Wget cookies files
=head1 VERSION
version 0.25
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use LWP;
use HTTP::Cookies::Wget;
$cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies::Wget->new(
file => "c:/program files/netscape/users/ZombieCharity/cookies.txt",
);
my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$browser->cookie_jar( $cookie_jar );
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This is a subclass of C<HTTP::Cookies> that reads (and optionally
writes) Wget/Mozilla cookie files.
See the documentation for L<HTTP::Cookies>.
=head1 CAVEATS
Please note that the Wget/Mozilla cookie file format can't store
all the information available in the Set-Cookie2 headers, so you will
probably lose some information if you save in this format.
At time of writing, this module seems to work fine with Mozilla
Phoenix/Firebird.
