Description

Routes network programs through a SOCKS proxy even when those programs do not offer their own proxy setting. This helps advanced users test tunneling setups or run older command-line tools through a controlled network path.

It works through a library and wrapper-style terminal use, not as a regular graphical app. Incorrect proxy settings can break connections or send traffic through an unexpected server, so it should be configured deliberately.
