How do I use/enable Tor when using Terminal? I live in a country that blocks most types Internet access and protocols so I need to utilize Tor from the command line. I haven't come across much useful information in this regard, so any information would be helpful. 

I've already downloaded the Tor/Vidalia bundle, although it appears to only work through the provided web-browser that it utilizes. That is great for searching the web, etc. but I need to ssh and use curl, etc., too.
Running Tor provides a standard proxy you can connect to at localhost:9050 with anything that supports the SOCKS protocol. Just search online for something like "SSH over Tor", or if that fails, "SSH through SOCKS proxy".

Two examples:


SSH:

ssh -o ProxyCommand="nc -X 4 -x localhost:9050 %h %p" example.com
curl:

curl --socks4a localhost:9050 example.com
