 It's not uncommon for users to want Tor Browser to use their already
 running system Tor. Doing this requires familiarity with the
 TOR_SKIP_LAUNCH environment variable. Rather than only documenting one or
 some of the env variables, they should all be documented in one place.
 Users should be able to visit a single document, FAQ entry, or wiki page
 where they can read the functionality of

 TOR_SKIP_LAUNCH
 TOR_FORCE_NET_CONFIG
 TOR_CONFIGURE_ONLY
 TOR_CONTROL_HOST
 TOR_CONTROL_PORT
 TOR_CONTROL_PASSWD
 TOR_CONTROL_COOKIE_AUTH_FILE
 TOR_SOCKS_HOST
 TOR_SOCKS_PORT
 TOR_TRANSPROXY

 and how to set each. (Did I miss any?)
