-Introduction
-------------
-
-Do you use Mac OSX's multiple network locations feature with different proxies?
-This is a great way to conveniently use applications in multiple locations
-without having to configure each app separately.
-
-Now you've probably noticed that command line applications do not use the proxy
-settings from System Preferences. This includes things like wget, fink, etc
-These applications all actually pay attention to the Unix convention of putting
-proxies in environment variables, eg
-$ export http_proxy="http://www-cache.example.com"
-
-Proxyconf allows you to configure your proxies in System Preferences, and it
-takes care of grabbing these values and exporting them as environment
-variables. The upshot of this is, your command line apps will use the same
-proxy settings as your GUI apps.

-Installation
-------------
-
-Installation is easy. Note the following assumes you've already configured your
-proxies in System Preferences. Skip to the last step if you downloaded a
-binary version.
-
-Firstly, grab a copy of the code using Mercurial (http://selenic.com/mercurial):
-$ cd ~/Downloads/
-$ hg clone http://delx.net.au/hg/proxyconf
-
-Next compile it:
-$ cd proxyconf
-$ make
-
-Now add the following line to your ~/.bashrc (modify as appropriate):
-eval $(~/Downloads/proxyconf/proxyconf)
-

-Limitations
------------
-
-Note that proxyconf only works if you have System Preferences set to configure
-proxies "Manually". For example, proxy.pac files are not supported.
-
-The environment variables are only exported when the shell starts. This means
-if you have a terminal open and change location the environment will be
-incorrect. This is unavoidable. The workaround is to close and start the
-terminal, or to run "exec bash -i"
