Short: c Long: cookie-jar Arg: Protocols: HTTP Help: Write cookies to 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.
