Doesn't work behind proxy in corporate Windows network (NTLM) #159
Description
HTTPie doesn't work in my office because our computers are behind an proxy. It still doesn't work even after specifying the --proxy argument, because the proxy is superevil. It uses a proprietary technology called NTLM that breaks most free software (Ruby and Nodejs as well as Python).
Here's a related issue—NTLM authentication for direct (unproxied requests) #76
This library will probably be useful in any fix https://github.com/requests/requests-ntlm

www-authenticateandproxy-authenticate. See http://davenport.sourceforge.net/ntlm.html#ntlmHttpAuthenticationThat plugin is based on requests-ntlm so I think it can only do
www-authenticatenot proxies.Upstream issues required for NTLM proxy auth in httpie are probably:
