 Normally I run tor like this:
 {{{
 src/or/tor HiddenServiceNonAnonymousMode 1 HiddenServiceSingleHopMode 1
 ControlPort 2000
 }}}
 Then I run tor-prompt with 2000 as the control port.

 Sometimes torrc command-line options are shell-quoted:
 {{{
 src/or/tor SocksPort "5000 IPv6Traffic"
 }}}

 They can optionally have a double-dash before the option name.

 It would be great to be able to pass torrc options to tor-prompt for the
 tor instance that it starts. In particular, I want to be able to:
 {{{
 stem/tor-prompt --tor src/or/tor SocksPort "5000 IPv6Traffic"
 }}}
