## About

    This is a script which configures removes the hassle of configuring proxy manually by supporting system wide proxy_configuration.

    It is kept as simple as possible . No extra library other than the one that comes with python3 is used.

    Currently tested on Ubuntu 14.04, 16.04, 18.04.

    There are four options

    1)Set proxy : Takes input from the user and modifies the required files.

    2)Remove proxy : Remove any proxy settings if present in the files.

    3)View Proxy : Displays the current proxy settings if there are any.

    4)Restore default : Restores to the state before running this script for the first time.

## Run 

```

chmod +x proxy.py

sudo ./proxy.py

```

## Support

    Currently it modifies the following files

    1)/etc/apt/apt.conf

    2)/etc/environment

    3)/etc/bash.bashrc
