| Help: Write cookies to <filename> after operation |
| --- |
| Specify to which file you want curl to write all cookies after a completed |
| operation. Curl writes all cookies from its in-memory cookie storage to the |
| given file at the end of operations. If no cookies are known, no data will be |
| written. The file will be written using the Netscape cookie file format. If |
| you set the file name to a single dash, "-", the cookies will be written to |
| stdout. |
| |
| This command line option will activate the cookie engine that makes curl |
| record and use cookies. Another way to activate it is to use the --cookie |
| option. |
| |
| If the cookie jar can't be created or written to, the whole curl operation |
| won't fail or even report an error clearly. Using --verbose will get a warning |
| displayed, but that is the only visible feedback you get about this possibly |
| lethal situation. |
| |
| If this option is used several times, the last specified file name will be |
| used. |
