Update documentation for the quarantine

After the brew install icanhazshortcut I could not run the app because of the quarantine flag.

What about updating the readme with something like brew install --no-quarantine awesome-app ?

See reference here: brew no quarantine

Hm, let me think about it. Ideally this should be solved by passing notarization instead of a magic brew argument.

Could you elaborate on 'notarization'? I don't know what it is.

BTW the software is great!

deseven commented

Thanks!

In 2019 Apple introduced software notarization, which is now required to not trigger the gatekeeper. Code signing with a valid certificate (which iCHS has) is not enough anymore.

You can read about it here:
