Had to paste it into notepad and then reformat it manually. Guess the wusiwug editor couldn't "translate" it into bbcode.

so it's just a bash script that will apt-get a bunch of programs?
I would say to only install software you need on your box, instead of downloading a bunch of programs you'll never even touch. For example I do not need a FORTRAN 77 compiler on my system. Although if I wrote in fortran, scilab, or made documents in TeX.. I would download those programs when I need them.
If you want open source science GUI software, may I recommend you open "Ubuntu Software Center" and browse the "Science & Engineering" section.
