-Command-line web browsing:
-
-  (First, install and configure Privoxy as described in INSTALL.)
-  For more convenient command-line use, I recommend making a ~/.wgetrc
-  with the line
-    http_proxy=http://localhost:8118
-  Then you can do things like "wget seul.org" and watch as it downloads
-  from the onion routing network.

-  For fun, you can wget a very large file (a megabyte or more), and
-  then ^z the wget a little bit in. The onion routers will continue
-  talking for a while, queueing around 500k in the kernel-level buffers.
-  When the kernel buffers are full, and the outbuf for the AP connection
-  also fills, the internal congestion control will kick in and the exit
-  connection will stop reading from the webserver. The circuit will
-  wait until you fg the wget -- and other circuits will work just fine
-  throughout. Then try ^z'ing the onion routers, and watch how well it
