This module implements a www-like shell above WWW::Mechanize and also has the
capability to output crude Perl code that recreates the recorded session.
Its main use is as an interactive starting point for automating a session
through WWW::Mechanize.
The cookie support is there, but no cookies are read from your existing browser
sessions. See HTTP::Cookies on how to implement reading/writing your current
browsers cookies.
From DESCR:
This module is intended as a simple way to fill out HTML forms from a set
of predetermined values. You set up the form filler with value elements,
retrieve the HTML form, and let the form filler loose on that form.
There are value classes provided for many tasks - fixed values, values to
be queried interactively from the user, values taken randomly from a list
of values and values specified through a callback to some Perl code.
This module abstracts the task of displaying HTML to the user. The displaying
is done by launching a browser and navigating it to either a temporary file
with the HTML stored in it, or, if possible, by pushing the HTML directly
into the browser window.
Upstream says that it "can not" work with perl 5.22 and has even
forked perl as "stableperl" to allow his package to work instead
of fixing it differently.
