When I want to do cookie-ish things with wget, it sure is a hassle
that first I have to convert ~/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist into a
Netscape-4 style cookie file first. (Even Firefox doesn't support
that format of cookies.txt any more!)
Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist is shared by all HTTP-using applications
on MacOS (it's a WebKit thing, not a Safari thing.) It's a trivial
XML format:
<array>
<dict>
<key>Domain</key>
<string>.foo.com</string>
<key>Name</key>
<string>...</string>
<key>Path</key>
<string>/</string>
<key>Value</key>
<string>...</string>
</dict>
