<h4>Python3</h4>
To install python3 go to http://python.org

This is a script which configures removes the hassle of configuring proxy manually by supporting system wide proxy_configuration.
It is kept as simple as possible . No extra library other than the one that comes with python3 is used.

Currently tested on Ubuntu 14.04, 16.04, 18.04.

There are four options
1)Set proxy : Takes input from the user and modifies the required files.
2)Remove proxy : Remove any proxy settings if present in the files.
3)View Proxy : Displays the current proxy settings if there are any.
4)Restore default : Restores to the state before running this script for the first time.

chmod +x proxy.py
sudo ./proxy.py

Currently it modifies the following files
1)/etc/apt/apt.conf
2)/etc/environment
3)/etc/bash.bashrc
