I believe you can use url-proxy-services and direct HTTP requests to use
your Tor daemon.

Could you show me how to do that? I don't know how.
The variable's doc string presumes knowledge I don't have.
Perhaps we should add concrete documentation of how to use that variable to do precisely this.

Hi,
There 2 common solutions:
1. Using torsocks [1] run Emacs from terminal:
#+begin_src shell
torsocks emacs;
#+end_src
2. Using the built-in socks.el library with these settings:
#+begin_src elisp
(setq socks-server '("tor" "127.0.0.1" 9050 5))
(setq url-gateway-method 'socks)
(setq socks-username "user")
(setq socks-password "")
#+end_src
But this library has issue [2].
To use tor via http proxy, you must configure it accordingly, because
socks proxy is used by default.

Looks like torsocks has gone. Anyone know where?

The URL (both website and repository) works for me:
icterid$ git clone https://git.torproject.org/torsocks.git/

Indeed, thanks. Your URL isn't the one given by the OP.
