---------------------------+------------------------
 If the user enabled multi_instance mode but didn't create /etc/tor/enabled
 he gets a unclear error message about file "*".

 This additional check should make it more obvious whats wrong.

 Proposed chage:
 Add the following check in line 210:

 {{{
 if ! ls $CONFDIR/*.torrc > /dev/null 2>&1
 then
  echo "torrc file(s) missing in $CONFDIR"
  exit 1
 fi
 }}}
