 > Maybe. But I get that same error with the Firefox 45.0.1 when I just run
 a command like:
 >   /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox https://google.com/
 > I am not sure, but I don't think this has ever worked on Mac OS X. See
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=238992 for a similar question
 (the answer: "use Apple Events")

 Ah, you're correct. I'm able to open a tab on OS X with `open -a
 TorBrowser https://google.com`. Sorry for the noise. It does look like
 this bug might be fixed?
