Drush Download Script Installation Instructions

## How to install

Copy & Paste the following into a command line / CLI as your user (not root, wheel, sudo)
It is to be run from one line. The script will delete itself upon use.

curl -s -o installer.sh http://gist.github.com/raw/394177/c1cab6e589207c902a72f5c73122b6dfe065128c/Drush%20Download%20Script && chmod +x installer.sh && ./installer.sh && rm -f ./installer.sh

### To cleanup previous installs of Drush (not required, ignore if not previously installed)
rm -rf ~/.drush/
remove the line with alias drush='~/.drush/drush/drush' from your ~/.bash_profile

The one line script, with the Git 301 redirect, should now be:

curl -s -o installer.sh https://gist.github.com/raw/394177/c1cab6e589207c902a72f5c73122b6dfe065128c/Drush%20Download%20Script && chmod +x installer.sh && ./installer.sh && rm -f ./installer.sh

There is now a Pear installer for drush that is the preferred way to install drush; please see the drush project page for details. In any event, it is not correct to install drush in the ~/.drush folder. ~/.drush is for configuration files and drush extensions. Finally, it is not nice to rm -rf ~/.drush in an install script; the user might have something useful there.
