+Long: socks4
+Arg: <host[:port]>
+Help: SOCKS4 proxy on given host + port
+Added: 7.15.2
+---
+Use the specified SOCKS4 proxy. If the port number is not specified, it is
+assumed at port 1080.
+
+This option overrides any previous use of --proxy, as they are mutually
+exclusive.
+
+Since 7.21.7, this option is superfluous since you can specify a socks4 proxy
+with --proxy using a socks4:// protocol prefix.
+
+If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
