I want to share a collection of scripts I've put together over time with the Linux Mint community, hopefully to make it better in the process with your feedback, suggestions and improvements; UnlockMe. UnlockMe is a collection of handy scripts put together using bash, yad and zenity to perform several tasks in the system just few clicks away. Download, install and remove themes, icon sets, cursors. Installs commonly used applications including web browsers not found in the main repo, conveniently tweak your system and much more.
