Hi,  
I am using scrubyt few days ago and I think it´s great. I’ve used it  
to get some contents from several webs, but at this moment I need to  
do the same tasks that I was doing but with a connection that it is  
behind a proxy.  
I’ve read in some pages that scrubyt supports proxy configuration, and  
I tried with the following:  
fetch “URL”, :proxy"PROXY:PROXY\_PORT"  
But I had not any good result. I couldn’t connect. What I’m doing  
wrong?  
Thanks a lot.

Sorry, the code that I tried is:  
fetch “URL”, :proxy =\> “PROXY:PROXY\_PORT”
