proxy plugin

The proxy plugin provides a couple helper functions to those of us who are
stuck behind HTTP/HTTPS/FTP proxies that require authentication.

Usage

In all cases you will need to add 'proxy' to your fish_plugins list in
config.fish

No authentication

If you just want to have the proxy plugin configure all the environment
variables, you may set proxy_host:

set proxy_host myproxy.example.com:8000

The proxy plugin will prepend http:// for you. Here's the result:

~> set -x |grep proxy
ALL_PROXY http://myproxy.example.com:8000
FTP_PROXY http://myproxy.example.com:8000
HTTPS_PROXY http://myproxy.example.com:8000
HTTP_PROXY http://myproxy.example.com:8000
NO_PROXY http://myproxy.example.com:8000
all_proxy http://myproxy.example.com:8000
ftp_proxy http://myproxy.example.com:8000
http_proxy http://myproxy.example.com:8000
https_proxy http://myproxy.example.com:8000
no_proxy http://myproxy.example.com:8000

With authentication

Set your proxy host and username:

set proxy_host myproxy.example.com:8000
set proxy_user mylogin

When you need to make use of the proxy, just run proxy. It will prompt you
for a password and setup your environment.

If you didn't setup a proxy_user variable, you will be prompted for a username.

If you wish to clear your proxy variables, run noproxy.
