@YoDude: sorry about the poor instructions that I wrote. Now that I've given them a second look, it's clear how difficult they would be to follow. I'm normally pretty good at writing directions; I guess I'm off my game. I updated them to be simpler.

As for Tear itself, yes, there are several bugs and missing features. It's probably not ready to totally replace the default browser right this minute, but given the rate of progress... it might not be much longer.

PS: If anyone else has problems following those instructions, let me know and I'll update them again.
