It would be useful to be able to run tbl as

torbrowser-launcher --download-only

and having it run the download and all the checks without any GUI.

This will be particularly useful to live anonymity distributions (tails, freepto, etc), but would also be great for anyone wanting to have TBB preinstalled but automatically updating.

This seems cool. If you'd like to work on this, go ahead and make a pull request. At the moment argument parsing is pretty primitive: https://github.com/micahflee/torbrowser-launcher/blob/master/torbrowser-launcher#L1189

The only argument is -settings and it just checks to see if that's in sys.argv. Would you want to replace that with argparse to properly handle argument (and automatically make --help look good and all that)? If so, I think -settings will probably be changed to --settings which means that https://github.com/micahflee/torbrowser-launcher/blob/master/share/applications/torbrowser-settings.desktop will need to change too.

Actually, this is a duplicate of #39.
