change socks5 proxy port using terminal.

I am using Ubuntu Gnome right now and I would like to ask if I do NOT use the GUI to change socks5 port, what other ways I can make my system went through socks5 and make it default?

 

The reason I am asking is that I use a shadowsocks proxy server to bypass the GFW. Right now I am stuck on a system that uses gnome as a DE because the app I am using only supports Gnome desktop environment.

 

If I can setup a shadowsocks server using the terminal and change my system proxy to socks5 using terminal I would be good to go. 

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

I don't have a Direct answer as I don't use a proxy, but these Arch Wiki Entry's may be of some use
