Comment (by atagar):

 Hi aegis2501, sorry about the long delay. I've been busy with our
 [https://blog.atagar.com/stem-release-1-7/ Stem 1.7 release].

 Your change looks great. I'll probably tweak this a tad so runtime
 preferences are lazily created when needed and not invoked in the main()
 method but those are just details. I wouldn't mind merging what you have
 here as-is if you'd like and circle back when I have time.

 As for what to include on the welcome popup honestly I'm not entirely
 sure. We should indicate features of Nyx newcomers might not know about.
 For instance...

 * You can use arrow keys to see additional pages of data.
 * You can press 'm' to navigate options in a menu.
 * You can customize nyx through a nyxrc.

 These are all things I was amazed to hear new nyx users were surprised to
 discover. I'm not sure though what well to tell folks. Maybe we should
 reach out to tor-relays@ to ask our relay operating community what they
 found most confusing when first using Nyx and what they wish they had in a
 welcome page?
