Bug Description
themusicgod1@
usage: torbrowser-launcher [-h] [--settings] [url [url ...]]
positional arguments:
url URL to load
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--settings Open Tor Browser Launcher settings
clearly states that torbrowser-launcher should launch the urls fed into it on the commandline. This is however not what happens when you run torbrowser-launcher followed by urls:
torbrowser-launcher https:/
loads my homepage (whether it's a set page or a blank page), that's it.
what should happen:
either
* the usage as specified by -h should not state urls are supported on the commandline
or
* urls should open unless tor browser is already running in which case it can fail with 'tor browser is already running'
or (better yet)
* urls should open in a new tab, whether or not tor browser is already running.
