Rewrite Metadata Validator/SoC 2008/Wine Browsers Setup

If one wants to use two popular browsers (namely Safari and Microsoft Internet Explorer with Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar) under Ubuntu or one of its flavours to test the compatibility of his or her Web application, he or she must use Wine for this purpose. It is important to note that in order to run Microsoft Internet Explorer under Ubuntu, one has to obtain a legal copy of Microsoft Windows. One can also experience problems when installing Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar, because IEs 4 Linux installs Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 in such a fashion, that it runs under a simulated Microsoft Windows 98 environment, whereas the aforementioned toolbar requires Microsoft Windows 2000 or newer. If Wine-Doors is used to accomplish this goal, it may suffer from a bug that has been closed just recently (as of June 2008). The following public domain Bash script can be helpful to install both browsers:

#!/bin/bash
sudo apt-get install sed wget gedit wine binfmt-support msttcorefonts
