Update documentation regarding Tor #212

Closed sternenseemann closed 4 years ago

sternenseemann commented 4 years ago

torify and torsocks no longer work as jackline will tell you when you try to use them.

Are btw there any plans to support SOCKS proxies as a replacement in the future?

nvm

Dear @sternenseemann, thanks for your PR. jackline warns you when LD_PRELOAD is used, but it will use it (and not use a custom OCaml DNS resolver, but gethostbyname / getaddrinfo instead).

Yes, the solution should be to add SOCKS support directly. This is not yet done (lacking a released and working socks implementation for OCaml AFAICT).

Thanks for the reply — sorry I kinda misread the deprecation warning as an error.
