3Help: SOCKS5 proxy, pass host name to proxy
4Added: 7.18.0
5---
6Use the specified SOCKS5 proxy (and let the proxy resolve the host name). If
7the port number is not specified, it is assumed 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 socks5
13hostname proxy with --proxy using a socks5h:// 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.
