the readme file was also incredibly old.

does somebody want to write actually useful versions of these
that won't need to be updated ever?

-'tor' is an implementation of The Onion Routing system, as

-Configuring tsocks:
-
-  If you want to use Tor for protocols that can't use Privoxy, or
-  with applications that are not socksified, then download tsocks
-  (tsocks.sourceforge.net) and configure it to talk to localhost:9050
-  as a socks4 server. My /etc/tsocks.conf simply has:
-    server_port = 9050
-    server = 127.0.0.1
-  (I had to "cd /usr/lib; ln -s /lib/libtsocks.so" to get the tsocks
-   library working after install, since my libpath didn't include /lib.)
-  Then you can do "tsocks ssh arma@moria.mit.edu". But note that if
-  ssh is suid root, you either need to do this as root, or cp a local
-  version of ssh that isn't suid.
-
-  (On Windows, you may want to look at the Hummingbird SOCKS client,
-  or at SocksCap, instead.)
