Changes since 0.3.0b:

 * Fixed many bugs, some important.

Requires Python >= 1.5.2.  urllib2 is recommended.  1.5.2-compatible
urllib2 / urllib is at

ClientCookie is a Python module for handling HTTP cookies on the client
side, useful for accessing web sites that require cookies to be set and
then returned later.  It also provides some other (optional) useful stuff:
HTTP-EQUIV handling, zero-time Refresh handling, and lazily-seekable
responses.  It has developed from a port of Gisle Aas' Perl module
HTTP::Cookies, from the libwww-perl library.

 import ClientCookie
 response = ClientCookie.urlopen("http://foo.bar.com/")

This function behaves identically to urllib2.urlopen, except that it deals
with cookies automatically.  That's probably all you need to know.
