Hi Lubuntu users, I think seamonkey is a good light-weight browser, but the instructions at the seamonkey web site to install it into linux are a little too primitive, or should I say, different from typical installations. New users might have problems to understand how to install seamonkey. More advanced users might want a method that is installing it for all users, not only the own user.
And above all, Israel Dahl made a script to create the nice environment around seamonkey for ToriOS, to use it as the default for several purposes. Seamonkey is actually all of these: a mail program, an IRC program, a web browser and a simple WYSIWYG web page editor. So the script Israel made also generates desktop files for the mail, IRC and a localized web browser script. This makes 3 extra desktop files, as the one that comes with seamonkey is not localized. I think it is worthwhile sharing it to be used also in other light-weight distros. I tested Israel's script and seamonkey in Lubuntu 14.04.2 LTS i386 (32-bit) and things work well :-) So I made a tutorial thread at the Ubuntu Forums showing how to use Israel's script, but also a simpler manual method to install seamonkey locally.
