Comment (by mcs):

 Replying to [comment:16 arma]:
 > mcs: I don't think you need the + signs when using the new
 {{{__SocksPort}}} / etc args?

 Hmm. I think we do, because otherwise an {{{__SocksPort}}} that is passed
 by Tor Launcher when starting tor will replace all {{{SocksPort}}}
 definitions that are present in torrc or torrc-defaults. At least that is
 what I thought I observed. I will re-test.
