The trick is it knows how to speak http proxy languange. May proxies,
like squid, demand a username and password, then a specific string to
pass the connection on. corkscrew can do that. Corkscrew works with
ssh, it hands the proxy your username and passwoard, starts the proxy
on to the desination, then hands off to ssh.
