There is a shell wrapper `tsocks` that does all that - all you need is to configure the SOCKS server/port in /etc/tsocks.conf and run `tsocks $COMMAND`, and all the TCP connections of `$COMMAND` will be tunneled through the SOCKS proxy.

Combined with ssh's `-D` option, it becomes a powerful ad-hoc VPN tool.
