Hi,

Under settings for a connection, there is a "Tunnels" subsection.
Here there is a text field in which you have to put a string of text
describing the tunnel you'd like to create, in the format
srcport:desthost:destport.

For example, to tunnel local port 8111 to remote host foo.com port
8888, you would enter the following string:

L8111:foo.com:8888

Currently there's only support for one tunneled connection. I will be
revamping this interface and that support a bit in the coming release.

I will also be turning to the website soon to un-cruft it - it is a
bit out of date and clearly needs some documentation.

Cheers
Eric
