I wanted to use dillo with a socks proxy (using ssh -D portnumber), however, I was not successful.
In the unix world, to use socks you usually need that the app support it... OR use a LD_LIBRARY_PATH preload trick to replace the normal network calls with socks one. Its usually called sockify a app.
Dante socks have a command called tsocks that does that, just run "tsocks dillo" and dillo will support the socks proxy and work normally.
Would it make sense to invest time into native socks support, or is it ok to rely on tsocks or similar? Cheers, Johannes
