I don't know how cookies are actually stored on disk, but this would
seem to be a good utility that could accompany lynx, rather than being
built into lynx.  Something the user could run manually or as a cron job would
be cool.

(I've known about cron for a very very long time, but only recently started
using it -- along with Lynx to mail myself a copy of the StudioBriefing
report on the IMDB.. So cool! Now I don't have to start up a web browser to
read it!)
