Sorry to bother again.
An equally good solution to replacing
*client_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,
socket.SOCK_STREAM)client_socket.connect(ip,port)*
with a TOR solution could be via a command line interface:
os.system("torsocketprogram -send 123.45.67.89 9000 filename.bytes") and
os.system("torsocketprogram -recv 123.45.67.89 9000 filename.bytes").
