I know the environment variables of http_proxy and https_proxy. But I don't know whether they can be used for SOCKS proxy or not because the manpage does not mention any keywords of SOCKS.

To the best of my knowledge, wget doesn't support SOCKS natively and it never did. People have however in the past reported successful use of the 'tsocks' program with wget, which can convert connections transparently to SOCKS.
