3Help: SOCKS4a proxy on given host + port
4Added: 7.18.0
5---
6Use the specified SOCKS4a proxy. If the port number is not specified, it is
7assumed at port 1080.

9This option overrides any previous use of --proxy, as they are mutually
10exclusive.
11
12Since 7.21.7, this option is superfluous since you can specify a socks4a proxy
13with --proxy using a socks4a:// protocol prefix.
14
15Since 7.52.0, --preproxy can be used to specify a SOCKS proxy at the same time
16--proxy is used with an HTTP/HTTPS proxy. In such a case curl first connects to
17the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS proxy.
18
19If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
