adds support for "forwarding rules" whereby rules of the form match_name:match_port,[user:pass@]upstream_name:upstream_port,remote_name:remote_port cause microsocks to forward the *match* request to the *upstream* SOCKS5 server using the name *remote*. this is particularly useful for accessing webuis of devices attached to various remote private networks: one can run a private microsocks (or other SOCKS5 server) on the PC attached to the remote network, and point a local microsocks instance at that server, allowing specific names to be forwarded to the private network without affecting normal browser traffic.

This may be well out of scope for microsocks, but it was useful for me so sharing it here:
adds support for "forwarding rules" whereby rules of the form
match_name:match_port,[user:pass@]upstream_name:upstream_port,remote_name:remote_port`
cause microsocks to forward the match request to the upstream SOCKS5 server using the name remote.
this is particularly useful for accessing webuis of devices attached to various remote private networks: one can run a private microsocks (or other SOCKS5 server) on the PC attached to the remote network, and point a local microsocks instance at that server, allowing specific names to be forwarded to the private network without affecting normal browser traffic.
