## THIS STEP IS OPTIONAL but it will force the system to use Tor Browser from within the i2pbrowser directory.
# This probably offers better security than vanilla Firefox.
# This will also make the directory the launcher is in relocatable to a flash drive, for instance.
# This is commonly referred to as being portable.
# If tor and torsocks are on the host system, Tor Browser will be downloaded over Tor.
./lib/torbrowser.sh 
# end of optional step.
