Description-en: Create tcp tunnels trough HTTPS proxies, for using with SSH
Proxytunnel is a program that connects stdin and stdout
to an origin server somewhere in the Internet through an industry
standard HTTPS proxy. It was originally written to be used
as an extension to SSH, to be used to SSH to a box at home. It's possible
to use proxytunnel along with other applications as well.
