A while ago I setup a github account in
order to contribute a BugFix to the dealii
Finite Element software I am using for my PhD project. Since then not
very much had happened to the account until I decided to add the
repository update-scripts
in which I plan to maintain the scripts I use to update some 3rd party
software on my LinuX machines.
Currently not very many applications are supported. Pretty much only Tor
and the Tor
Browser, both
applications from torproject.org. Since
both are updated fairly often, the packages of my distribution (Debian)
are not recent enough. Especially the Tor Browser is installed on pretty
much all my machines: It is really easy to use and perfect if one just
needs to do some quick checks on the internet. So I decided to develop
scripts that automatically download, cryptographically check and install
the current Tor Browser to the user's HOME directory. If you are
interested to use or contribute to this project, feel free to download
it below or visit the project
page on github.
