It'd be better if the documentation had more info than "can be used to modify the scripts behaviour".

@kshitij86 Looks like the project readme could use some touch-ups. Since you made an issue for it though, have your tried passing -h to the script for the help page? I think it clarifies most of the options.
usage: slowloris.py [-h] [-p PORT] [-s SOCKETS] [-v] [-ua] [-x] [--proxy-host PROXY_HOST] [--proxy-port PROXY_PORT] [--https]
[--sleeptime SLEEPTIME]
[host]
Slowloris, low bandwidth stress test tool for websites
positional arguments:
host Host to perform stress test on
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-p PORT, --port PORT Port of webserver, usually 80
-s SOCKETS, --sockets SOCKETS
Number of sockets to use in the test
-v, --verbose Increases logging
-ua, --randuseragents
Randomizes user-agents with each request
-x, --useproxy Use a SOCKS5 proxy for connecting
--proxy-host PROXY_HOST
SOCKS5 proxy host
--proxy-port PROXY_PORT
SOCKS5 proxy port
--https Use HTTPS for the requests
--sleeptime SLEEPTIME
Time to sleep between each header sent.
A quick fix for the issue might be to just paste this in the readme.
