	OSX lynx over tor

	----------------------------------------

	The fine gentlemen on #freenode's gopher channel were showing off
	some of their gopher sites served over tor. I wanted to test it
	out while I was at work on my MacBook Air. This machine wasn't
	configured to use tor at all, so here's the process I went through
	to get everything working. (It's really easy)

	Step 1: Install tor and torsocks and lynx if you don't have them

	brew install tor torsocks lynx

	Step 2: Use this wrapper [0] to launch tor and create the proper
	networking configuration to use the socks proxy, and disable that
	proxy when you kill tor.

	#!/usr/bin/env bash

	# 'Wi-Fi' or 'Ethernet' or 'Display Ethernet'
	INTERFACE=Wi-Fi

	# Ask for the administrator password upfront
	sudo -v

	# Keep-alive: update existing `sudo` time stamp until finished
	while true; do sudo -n true; sleep 60; kill -0 "$$" \|\| exit; done 2>/dev/null…

	# trap ctrl-c and call disable_proxy()
	function disable_proxy() {
	sudo networksetup -setsocksfirewallproxystate $INTERFACE off
	echo "$(tput setaf 64)" #green
	echo "SOCKS proxy disabled."
	echo "$(tput sgr0)" # color reset
	}
	trap disable_proxy INT

	# Let's roll
	sudo networksetup -setsocksfirewallproxy $INTERFACE 127.0.0.1 9050 off
	sudo networksetup -setsocksfirewallproxystate $INTERFACE on

	echo "$(tput setaf 64)" # green
	echo "SOCKS proxy 127.0.0.1:9050 enabled."
	echo "$(tput setaf 136)" # orange
	echo "Starting Tor..."
	echo "$(tput sgr0)" # color reset

	tor

	Step 3: Use torify to launch lynx

	torify lynx gopher://hg6vgqziawt5s4dj.onion/1/

	Your tor service should run fine as-is for browser usage, but it
	looks like you'll need to use torify if you want to launch
	a command line app that uses tor. This "just works" for me, so
	hopefully it will for you as well.

	Next up, solving this for Linux!
