Tor support broken

Tor proxy DOES not seem to be supported unless it is undocumented or some trick to get it to work, i can't get it to resolve onion urls, even tried doing --proxy socks://localhost:9050

This occurs with both the kali distribution's release of whatweb and the one from here.

Using proxychains it is able to connect through tor's socks proxy provided you don't pass the --proxy argument, but cannot find onion addresses.
