I put things in there that I find myself installing often for testing purposes.
Firefox is one of those things. Steven Edwards sent
me a patch about the time I was thinking of adding it, so
in it went.
I do have two other scripts for applications.
First,
http://kegel.com/wine/migrating-user-1.html
links to
http://kegel.com/wine/migrating-user-1.sh
which can install 14 random apps user #1 wanted.
Second,
http://code.google.com/p/winezeug/source/browse/trunk/codecdemo
is a little script that installs a media player and some
codecs (mostly using winetricks), and a bunch of demo videos.
Those aren't ever going into winetricks. I only mention
this to show that I do have *some* sense of taste.
