Change the APP variable's value to whatever you want to install. Depending on how fast your machine is, you'll want to adjust the value 50 to something else. You might also want to play a different game than Gnometris - just make sure it's a GUI game.
Useful for checking if a large number of PNG files was downloaded successfully by verifying the built-in CRC checksum. For incomplete files, the command will print:
"00002309.png EOF while reading IDAT data

$ ontouchdo crufty.html 'clear; xmllint --noout crufty.html 2>&1 | head'
Keep editing krufty.html until the xmllint window is empty.
Note: Mac/bsd users should use stat -f%m. If you don't have stat, you can use perl -e '$f=shift; @s=stat($f); print "$s[9]\n";' $1
