command line option

All command line options now provide one or more related options. 167

Long: socks5-hostname
Arg: <host[:port]>
Help: SOCKS5 proxy, pass host name to proxy
Added: 7.18.0
Category: proxy
Example: --socks5-hostname proxy.example:7000 $URL
See-also: socks5 socks4a
---
Use the specified SOCKS5 proxy (and let the proxy resolve the host name). If
the port number is not specified, it is assumed at port 1080.
This option overrides any previous use of --proxy, as they are mutually
exclusive.
This option is superfluous since you can specify a socks5 hostname proxy with
--proxy using a socks5h:// protocol prefix. (Added in 7.21.7)
Since 7.52.0, --preproxy can be used to specify a SOCKS proxy at the same time
--proxy is used with an HTTP/HTTPS proxy. In such a case curl first connects to
the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS proxy.
If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
