I consider myself someone moderately familiar with the Tor culture.

However, it's impossible for me as a user to know what I should be using
to force programs to use Tor.

The options I can think of, off the top of my head, are:

      * torsocks
      * tsocks
      * usewithtor
      * uwt (admittedly only because it was mentioned above)
      * torify
      * proxychains

torsocks seems to have already been forked or functionally duplicated.
What's needed now is a merge, or at least very good documentation on
when to use what.
