Hi, The proxies section of the manual doesn't mention the use of https_proxy environment variable when you're behind a Proxy and getting something from a HTTPS connection.
It would be a nice touch if this environment variable is included in the manual, I've to search for it in Google for a couple of hours before I could get that working (in WinXP, using cntlm to bypass some MS-ISA proxy). Thanks for all your hard work! Greetings from Colombia. -- Ugo Albarello
