Here is a simple Python script to convert Mozilla cookies to the ELinks format.
Usage, eg. $ python cook.py file_with_mozilla_cookies >> ~/.elinks/cookies
--
Witek
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys
from cookielib import *
def main():
if len(sys.argv) == 1:
print "Usage:", sys.argv[0], "filename_with_mozilla_cookies"
return 1
cookies = MozillaCookieJar()
cookies.load(sys.argv[1])
for cookie in cookies:
cookie.domain = cookie.domain[1:]
print "%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%d\t%d" % (cookie.name,
cookie.value, cookie.domain, cookie.path, cookie.domain, cookie.expires,
cookie.secure)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
