Hi,
If I use firefox, I can use a simple command line to open a link in a new tab automatically, like
firefox www.google.com
now I want to open TBB first, and then open a link in a new tab, is there any script or method to automate this operation? I need this automation for some experiment, I know TBB is a modified firefox, so if there are TBB developes here, they may know how to do this,
thanks!

Once TBB is open try "cd ~" and
~/tor-browser_en-US/App/Firefox/firefox --profile Data/profile -new-tab www.google.com
or
~/tor-browser_en-US/App/Firefox/firefox --profile Data/profile -new-tab www.google.com &
Hi, adrelanos:
Thank you so much for your help.
I tried it on linux with
/tor-browser_en-US/App/Firefox/firefox --profile /tor-browser_en-US/Data/profile -new-tab www.google.com
it prompts:
Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To oepn a new window, you must first close the existing FIrefox process, or restart your system.
I think the '-new-tab' doesnt play its role here. Maybe it can only works on Windows? I will try it later.

Tested again on Debian Wheezy.
cd ~
~/tor-browser_en-US/App/Firefox/firefox --profile Data/profile -new-tab https://www.startpage.com
Works for me.
(Assumes TBB is installed to ~/tor-browser_en-US.)
thanks, BTW, do you know how to close the tab using command line like this?
and when opening a youtube link like this: http://www.youtube.com/embed/CistYoLwL7M
is there any script or command line to automate clicking on the "play button" ? thanks!

No, I can not help you with this, I don't know the answers. I brought you back on track. Told you, how you can start Tor Browser like Firefox. That's the only difference in Tor Browser (+ Tor Button + rebranding + Firefox patches).
For the rest of your questions, I suggest asking them in regular Firefox places. Don't confuse them with Tor Browser. Ask Firefox questions, test with Firefox first, afterwards test with Tor Browser, should work, as Tor Browser does not break so many features.
