So is there a comprehensive script I can enter into the Quick Clip settings field that incorporates this commandline startup so that tear will launch even when not running? Certainly this has to be possible, right? I mean, wouldn't it be something similar to whatever happens when I use the tear bookmark plug-in to have tear open to a bookmarked page?

Thanks!
