Thanks for your contribution and sorry for the delay of the answer: I had not been notified about your comment and I saw it only today.
I tested your modification under Linux and confirms that this also works for me. So, I just published a new version which includes your modification.
About realpath: could you also test the "install.sh" script? Normally, this script checks for missing packages and tries to install them. To do that, it first tries to detect which package tool you are using. In your case it should detect "OS = darwin" --> package = 'brew'. But since I do not have any OSX system I could not test whenever it works or not.
Note : the installer copies the packages into $HOME/bin directory, meaning that it does not require admin privileges, unless if it has detected uninstalled packages (which are installed as root). Then it adds an icon to the desktop.
