-------------------------+--------------------------
 I'd like to make Tor Browser my default browser by symlinking
 /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser to it.

 However, using {{{/path/to/tor-browser_en-US/start-tor-browser
 https://check.torproject.org/}}} results in the error message:

   Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window,
 you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.

 Using {{{/path/to/tor-browser_en-US/Browser/firefox}}} gives the same
 result.
