Extracting cookies of Firefox from command line, how?


I need FF cookies for:
Code:
wget --load-cookies
Is there any way to do that (sth like this)?

Note: I can't use some FF addons for extracting the cookies, because I want access to my home computer from work (using cli-ways).

Kind regards.

And here's an entry I posted last year on the same subject, where I detailed how to get it into the proper cookies.txt formatting:
