# Tor Browser Launcher
Tor Browser Launcher is intended to make the Tor Browser Bundle (TBB) easier to maintain and use for GNU/Linux users. You install ```torbrowser-launcher``` from your distribution's package manager and it handles everything else, including:
* Automatically updating (while preserving your bookmarks and preferences)
* Verifying the TBB's [GnuPG signature](http://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual/x135.html)
* Includes AppArmor profiles to make a Tor Browser compromise not as bad
-* Adding a "Tor Browser" application launcher to your desktop environment's menu
+* Adding a "Tor Browser" application launcher to your desktop environment's menu, and letting you set Tor Browser as your default browser
* Optionally playing a modem sound when you open Tor Browser (because Tor is so slow)

-Tor Browser Launcher will get updated each time a new version of TBB is released. When you open Tor Browser after an update, it will download the newer version of TBB for you and extract it over your old TBB directory in ~/.torproject, so you will maintain your TBB bookmarks.
