Brew installation guide: Wrong default path #74

When installing via Homebrew, the path of the Do Nothing app has changed from what's written in the guide. It's now in the user directory, so the path changes from

/Library/PreferencePanes/...

to

~/Library/PreferencePanes/...

The README already states:

If, when you installed the Preferences Pane, you only installed it for the current user, replace /Library with ~/Library in the two commands below

But since that's the default for Homebrew, I think this should be switched.

I've never liked Homebrew, I'm a macports user.
That said, I realize most of the users of this app come from Homebrew.

If somebody makes a PR with a better script to detect where the app actually is and run it, I'll merge it.

I'm working on retooling the whole thing quite a bit anyway, starting with moving away from PreferencePanes.
