The first browser that "invented" a cookies file was Netscape Navigator and it used cookies.txt. That's not a real "standard", but comes pretty close. The 'file' command recognizes # HTTP Cookie File in the first line as "Web browser cookie, ASCII text" But it's case-sensitive, so that it does not recognize cookies.txt written by Wget. Tim
