 > In the Tor Browser archive, let's add another program labeled “Tor
 Browser User Manual”. The program would be a lot like the “Start Tor
 Browser” one. But instead of starting the Tor Browser, it would start a
 locked down browser to display the manual, using a dedicated profile or a
 `-app` thingy. This locked down browser would look quite like Yelp, with
 no menu, no address bar It would be prevented from making any network
 connection. Instead, when an external link is clicked, it would ask the
 user to copy the URL and paste it manually somewhere else.

 Although I am not Santa Claus I think this sounds like a lot of overkill
 for the purpose of letting the user view a manual. Especially as you still
 are dependent on a loading Tor Browser as you noted.
