Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I will give it a try because it seems likely that someone here can point me in the right direction if need be. I am not a programmer.
I have an application that can make http connections but not https. The connections are made from a Windows command line interface, not a browser. I would like to enable it to make https connections too without having to reinvent the wheel. If there is some way to connect it to an intermediary proxy program that does have built-in support for the https protocol, that would be swell. Is such a thing possible or is there another solution I don't see? Thanks.

You should be able to start stunnel, set it up to accept connections on the port that your application normally connects, and redirect to the https port (Typically 443). It will require the certificate and some configuration of stunnel.
