    Perl one liner using CPAN.pm:

      $ perl -MCPAN -e 'install Apache2::WebApp::Plugin::Cookie'

    Use of CPAN.pm in interactive mode:

      $ perl -MCPAN -e shell
      cpan> install Apache2::WebApp::Plugin::Cookie
      cpan> quit

    Just like the manual installation of Perl modules, the user may need
    root access during this process to insure write permission is allowed
    within the installation directory.

CONFIGURATION
    In order to set a browser cookie, you need to specify a valid hostname
    in your *webapp.conf*

      [apache]
      domain = www.domain.com

OBJECT METHODS
  set
    Set a new browser cookie.

      $c->plugin('Cookie')->set( $c, {
            name    => 'foo',
            value   => 'bar',
            expires => '24h',
            domain  => 'www.domain.com',    # optional
            secure  => 0,
        });

      my $result = $c->plugin('Cookie')->get($name);

      # bar is value of $result

      $c->plugin('Cookie')->delete( \%controller, $name );

EXAMPLE
      package Example;

      use strict;

      sub _default {
          my ( $self, $c ) = @_;

          $c->plugin('Cookie')->set( $c, {
              name    => 'foo',
              value   => 'bar',
              expires => '1h',
              secure  => 0,
            });

          $c->plugin('CGI')->redirect( $c, '/app/example/verify' );
      }

      sub verify {
          my ( $self, $c ) = @_;

          $c->request->content_type('text/html');

          print $c->plugin('Cookie')->get('foo');
      }

      1;
