</div></div>Hi,<br>
<br>
perhaps solving the ticket "add http proxy support to Tor"?<br>
<a href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6060" target="_blank">https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6060</a><br>
<br>
Or working on torsocks maybe?<br>
<br>
At the moment the torsocks input methods are a bit weird. The and<br>
usewithtor, torify and uwt wrappers should be be redundant.<br>
<br>
<a href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/torsocks" target="_blank">https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/torsocks</a><br>
<a href="https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2012-July/024925.html" target="_blank">https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2012-July/024925.html</a><br>
<br>
The uwt interface could be extended to a point where all settings which<br>
can be defined in the config file can also be defined by command line.<br>
And if that's too much, an option to supply the configuration file by<br>
command line would help as well.<br>
<br>
Interface could look like this:<br>
<br>
Usage: torsocks [-h] [-v] -t server_type -i ip -p port <command><br>
[<options>...]<br>
Example: torsocks -t 5 -i 127.0.0.1 -p 9050 wget<br>
<a href="https://check.torproject.org" target="_blank">https://check.torproject.org</a><br>
         sudo torsocks -t 5 -i 192.168.0.10 -p 9104 /usr/bin/apt-get<br>
--yes dist-upgrade<br>
<br>
The list of other torsocks issues also looks reasonable small.<br>
<br>
<a href="https://code.google.com/p/torsocks/issues/list?can=2&q=&colspec=ID+Type+Status+Priority+Milestone+Owner+Summary&cells=tiles" target="_blank">https://code.google.com/p/torsocks/issues/list?can=2&q=&colspec=ID+Type+Status+Priority+Milestone+Owner+Summary&cells=tiles</a><br>

<br>
And if I am not mistaken, Vidalia is currently lacking development.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
