Ciao Gilles,
thanks for pointing to the cookies patch. Yes, it is a backporting
patch from 3.2.x and works pretty well on my Linux system. I expect other
people on different platforms to test it and give me some feedback
regarding portability.
As far as patch posting is concerned, I don't know whether Joe received
my e-mail 2 days ago. If you need more stuff please tell me, ok?

Well, to be sincere it is not a difficult thing. The code was designed
to support any kind of Cookies storage, it is pretty flexible indeed. For
now only the memory jar is supported. This regards though the persistency
of cookies among different crawls, which is different to the pre-loading of
cookies. This should not be a big work to do as I just said.
We only need a format for storing them. We could decide this, if you
want. My vote would be to store them in a text file using the HTTP syntax.
By doing this, we would avoid any kind of parsing and the insertion into
the memory Jar would be straightforward.
I don't know though if this is a flexible solution and the right one,
because it seems to go against the usual way of configuration and leads in
some cases to confusion (a user should use the specific and exact syntax in
order to issue one or more cookies). Any ideas?
Ciao ciao and thanks for rising up the topic
-Gabriele
