I'm using the ktor network client (sockets, not http). I notice that there is no capability at the TCP socket level to use a SOCKS proxy. Short of using an external SOCKS redirector or implementing the SOCKS protocol myself, is there a way to do this? Maybe a 3rd party lib?

I only found <https://github.com/torsm/ktor-socks|this outdated implementation> of the SOCKS server.

Plus that's a SOCKS server -- I need a SOCKS client

Looks like the protocol is pretty trivial, might be worth it to just implement it: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOCKS>
