can someone calrify exactly how the web scraping proxy is used

I am looking at it's readme file and it says

Usage:

wsp.pl [-v] [-a] [-p proxy]

and suggests the proxy does not contain http://

I assume web scraping proxy saves the content it is scraping to a file, does it do this automatically, or do i have to suggest the file it is to be saved, I have tried several combinations each time it says bad command or filename, and proceeds to (what I assume is web scraping proxy running, with either listening on port 5364... open for connections yet nothing actually shows on the screen that web scraping proxy is doing anything), I have also tried

perl wsp.pl -v > filetosaveto -p proxy proxyport

only to be met with the same error, sometimes ignoring the port I specified and defaulting to 5364. wsp.pl is in a subdirectory wspv2 in c:/perl/bin. I am a little stumped on where to go next, as far I as I am aware all the required modules from the readme file are installed
