Nick Mathewson authoredNow the manpages no longer refer to tsocks or tsocks.conf, and we no longer have or ship a tor-tsocks.conf. The only remaining instances of "tsocks" in our repository are old ChangeLog and ReleaseNotes entries, and the torify script saying that it doesn't support tsocks. Fixes bug 8290.

NAME
----
torify - wrapper for torsocks and tor
SYNOPSIS
--------
**torify** __application__ [__application's__ __arguments__]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
**torify** is a simple wrapper that attempts to find the best underlying Tor
wrapper available on a system. It calls torsocks with a tor specific
configuration file. +
torsocks is an improved wrapper that explicitly rejects UDP, safely resolves DNS
lookups and properly socksifies your TCP connections. +
Please note that since both method use LD_PRELOAD, torify cannot be applied to
suid binaries.
WARNING
-------
When used with torsocks, torify should not leak DNS requests or UDP data. +
Both will leak ICMP data.
SEE ALSO
--------
