Solution for Proxy on WinWget

Hi apparle,

here the solution:

copy the sample.wgetrc to .wgetrc and edit the section

http_proxy = http://localhost:4001/
use_proxy = off

change the values to the one you need.

In the application themselves you need to add the following into the Additional Parameter section if you want to use the configured proxy

--proxy=on

That's it

cheers

PS: By the way a new BINARY for wget is available under http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/wget.htm
