http proxy to socks proxy

Hi all,

I have a working socks proxy, and a web browser (emacs-w3m) that does not support socks.  I am looking for a way to create an http proxy that will do nothing but forward the connections through my socks proxy.  Does anybody know of an easy way to acheive this?

I've looked a little at Delegate (http://www.delegate.org/), and I believe it will do what I want, but I can't grasp the syntax to do it.

I use Polipo, but it's caching proxy... maybe just try tsocks?

For anybody interested I figured it out.  Used delegate:

delegated -P9090 SERVER=http SOCKS=localhost:2345

I had a chance to try tsocks and polipo.  Polipo is my favorite.  Easy to set up and use.  And it forwards DNS!  Thanks for the recommendation.
