This repository provides a seamless way to install many of the commonly used programs/scripts.

It has been tested on an Ubuntu system and might therefore fail to run on a non Debian based distribution. In addition, some of these programs are based on amd64 architecture and might therefore not work on a 32-bit system.

The script will run for sometime for a fresh installation depending on the network speed and/or hardware.
