Hello, Juliusz. You may have already answered my question, but perhaps
I am not getting it. Let me know if that is the case. Otherwise, I
suppose another way of looking at this problem might entail this
question:
Is there a way for me to have Polipo intercept all the outbound http
calls to port 80 or port 443? If I cannot specify an address for the
program to use (at least I haven't figured out whether that is
possible as yet), can I tell Polipo to watch for all addresses on
outbound port 80 or 443 from a certain program? Thanks.

that
uses http and https to retrieve text files from sites on the internet.
I want to run it with socat so that I can then make use of Polipo,
which I already have installed and working correctly. Currently,
Polipo connects to a socks proxy and allows me to make use of tor over
the internet. I have it configured to utilize port 8080 right now with
tor. What I want to do is to have the program pointing at socat, which
can then intercept the program's transmissions (I would hope), which
are made only on ports 80 and 443, channel them to Polipo and from
there the data would be sent to the socks proxy, tor. I don't know how
to explain it much more than that, and I am not sure whether this is
included in your earlier reference to an Intercepting Proxy. Thank
you.

I'm not clear what you're trying to do here.
If you're trying to implement an intercepting proxy, please see

If you're trying to do something else, please let us know.
