[SH/DASH] Fully Prepare Linux Mint 17.3 Mate script [Useful for Give-Away Projects]

This is a SH/DASH script which can be used to fully prepare Linux Mint 17.3 Mate install for use by the common person.
The goal is to prepare a older PC with atleast 768-1024MB RAM, P4 CPU which can be used in projects to be given away to schools or people with no money for modern PC.
Linux Mint 17.3 Mate is a good replacement for XP. It will still allow you to use Email, Youtube, Flash Games and most normal web activities. Also Teamviewer is available for remote support.

Almost no knowledge is needed to prepare a Mint install when using this script.
The only requirements are: Get a Mint 17.3 Mate ISO, install it on your HDD, make the script executeable and run the script, done (well perhaps you want to use 'mintdrivers' for your VGA).

Usage:

Spoiler

The script will accept 1 switch.
The switch:

• --nosudo

Using this switch will allow the script to only run on the current user, as long as it is not run with or as SUDO (Super User)

To make the script executeable, run in a terminal:

Code:

chmod +x "YOURFILE"

Replace "YOURFILE" by the location of your script.

Now just doubleclick the script or run from terminal with or without sudo.
Input your password (it will be hidden while typing) and press enter.

Now enjoy the spectacle and hope everything works correctly.

Notes:

Spoiler

• Do not run as ROOT, the script may will not work correctly and warn you.
• I restricted the script to only run on Mint 17.3 with Mate with Internet connection.
• If any errorcode is generated by a application other than 0, the script will exit with a warning (usually anything other than than 0 is program error).
• Compiz settings are made Read-Only since Mint decided to switch from Flat-File to Dconf for config settings, but some settings do not work properly.

They also added a reset button in 'MintDesktop'.
So the script will assume generally liked settings and make flat-file config read-only to prevent less knowledgeable people ruining the Compiz settings.
You can remove this if you want, by making '~/.config/compiz-1/compizconfig' and files inside writeable, edit '~/profile' and delete '~/.compiz_config_ro'. Do these also in '/etc/skel'.
You could also edit out these part from script before executing.
​

• If you want to know what the script does, just look at it, it have commented each section. The script should be easily readable, it is not rocket science or assembly
• The script runs in 3 parts. Super User, Current User and a section for Both.
• Settings are also applied to '/etc/skel' folder. So when you create a new user, the skeleton folder ia copied with the settings to new user accounts.
• While Linux Mint is already pretty secure after using this script, you should still regulary update your system using mintUpdate or 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'.

No system is invurnable (not till our Skynet overlords rule over us).
Especially with super complex inferior human written buggy multiplatform mediacontent HTML/CSS/JAVASCRIPT viewers​

### Create variable for embed Tab in Heredocs
