The following line set in the Script Address box of the browser proxy configuration will help - no need for a PAC file for quick tests. Be sure to adjust the proxy name and port.

data:,function FindProxyForURL(u, h){return "HTTPS proxy.example.lan:8443";}

Is it just me, or is it slightly disturbing that JavaScript in a configurations property box is being executed?

proxy autoconfig is javascript-based but uses very limited javascript.

while I agree javascript is not ideal, it's very hard to configure proper proxy configuration without using scripting language.

and, when we need scripting language, it's much easier to use something that has been implemented and is used in browsers.

Aside: Why the propensity of running the HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and SOCKS proxies on non-standard ports? Why not run them on their standard ports; 80, 443, 21, and 1080 respectively?

because standard servers and not proxies usually run on standard ports.
Also, FTP protocol (port 21) does not support proxying, and using FTP proxy usually involves hacks.
