Description
===========

MozillaCookiesView is an alternative to the standard 'Cookie Manager'
provided by Netscape and Mozilla browsers. It displays the details of all
cookies stored inside the cookies file (cookies.txt) in one table, and
allows you to save the cookies list into text, HTML or XML file, delete
unwanted cookies, and backup/restore the cookies file.



System Requirement
==================

MozillaCookiesView works properly in all versions of Windows (Windows
9x/ME, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP) and it can read the
cookies file created by any version of Netscape/Mozilla browser. However,
If you have an old version of Netscape or Mozilla, you'll have to locate
the cookies file (cookies.txt) by yourself, and then select it by using
the 'Select Cookies File / Folder' option.

Using MozillaCookiesView
========================

MozillaCookiesView doesn't require any installation process or additional
DLLs. In order to start using it, just copy the executable (mzcv.exe) to
any folder you like, and run it.
If you have an advanced version of Mozilla or Netscape browsers,
MozillaCookiesView automatically locates your cookies file and displays
the list of all cookies stored in there. If you have more than one
profile in your browser, you can view the cookies of other profiles by
using the 'Select User Profile' option. If MozillaCookiesView fails to
automatically find your cookies file, you can still select the cookies
file manually, by using the 'Select Cookies File / Folder' option.

In the main window of MozillaCookiesView, you can easily select one or
more cookies, and then delete them, copy the cookies information to the
clipboard, or save them to text, HTML, or XML file.



Command-Line Options
====================



-cookiesfile <Filename>
Opens MozillaCookiesView with the specified cookies filename.

-profilesfolder <Folder>
Opens MozillaCookiesView with the specified profiles folder.

/stext <Filename>
Save the cookies list into a regular text file.

/stab <Filename>
Save the cookies list into a tab-delimited text file.

/stabular <Filename>
Save the cookies list into a tabular text file.

/shtml <Filename>
Save the cookies list into HTML file (Horizontal).

/sverhtml <Filename>
Save the cookies list into HTML file (Vertical).

/sxml <Filename>
Save the cookies list to XML file.

/sort <column>
This command-line option can be used with other save options for sorting
by the desired column. If you don't specify this option, the list is
sorted according to the last sort that you made from the user interface.
The <column> parameter can specify the column index (0 for the first
column, 1 for the second column, and so on) or the name of the column,
like "Value" and "Name". You can specify the '~' prefix character (e.g:
"~Name") if you want to sort in descending order. You can put multiple
/sort in the command-line if you want to sort by multiple columns.

Examples:
mzcv.exe /shtml "f:\temp\cookies.html" /sort 2 /sort ~1
mzcv.exe /shtml "f:\temp\cookies.html" /sort "Domain/Host" /sort "Name"

/nosort
When you specify this command-line option, the list will be saved without
any sorting.

Examples:
mzcv.exe -cookiesfile "C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\1ac13dos.s
lt\cookies.txt"
mzcv.exe -profilesfolder "C:\Documents and Settings\User1\Application
Data\Phoenix\Profiles"
mzcv.exe /shtml "c:\temp\cookies-list.html" -cookiesfile
"c:\netscape\cookies.txt"



Translating MozillaCookiesView To Another Language
==================================================

MozillaCookiesView allows you to easily translate all menus,
dialog-boxes, and other strings to other languages.
In order to do that, follow the instructions below:
1. Run MozillaCookiesView with /savelangfile parameter:
   mzcv.exe /savelangfile
   A file named mzcv_lng.ini will be created in the folder of
   MozillaCookiesView utility.
2. Open the created language file in Notepad or in any other text
   editor.
3. Translate all menus, dialog-boxes, and string entries to the
   desired language.
4. After you finish the translation, Run MozillaCookiesView, and all
   translated strings will be loaded from the language file. If you want
   to run MozillaCookiesView without the translation, simply rename the
   language file, or move it to another folder.
