| Help: SOCKS5 proxy, pass host name to proxy |
| Example: --socks5-hostname proxy.example:7000 $URL |
| Use the specified SOCKS5 proxy (and let the proxy resolve the host name). If |
| the port number is not specified, it is assumed at port 1080. |
| This option overrides any previous use of --proxy, as they are mutually |
| This option is superfluous since you can specify a socks5 hostname proxy with |
| --proxy using a socks5h:// protocol prefix. (Added in 7.21.7) |
| Since 7.52.0, --preproxy can be used to specify a SOCKS proxy at the same time |
| --proxy is used with an HTTP/HTTPS proxy. In such a case curl first connects to |
| the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS proxy. |
| If this option is used several times, the last one will be used. |
