| # Description: Script to install the latest Wine Tahoma Regular and Wine Tahoma Bold fonts on Ubuntu distros from the Wine Project. | |
| # The Wine project includes the free and open-source fonts Wine Tahoma Regular and Wine Tahoma Bold released under LGPL | |
| # designed to have identical metrics to the Microsoft Tahoma font. This was done because Tahoma is available by default | |
| # on Windows, and many applications expect the font to be available. | |
| # Dependencies: wget | |
| # Tested: Ubuntu Saucy/Trusty/Xenial/Bionic | |
| # Latest Update: 20/11/2020 | |

Great Work!
I don't see Tahoma font installed.
When opening link https://source.winehq.org/source/fonts/tahoma.ttf?_raw=1 I see some garbage:
