This is a minor issue.
As there is no Scantailor.app created upon installation, I run scantailor via command line in terminal, which calls the script /Cellar/scantailor/1.0.16/bin/scantailor, we end up with an alias icon on dock that looks like this:

I'd like scantailor to show its original icon when running.

In OS X, the icon comes from the .plist file in the .app package.
If you want a clickable executable with an icon, you should get the .app package rather than installing via homebrew. The package is available in the "Release" section of this repository

I've installed other apps via homebrew, such as briss and skim.

They both have special icons on the dock.

I think Briss is a case-in-point because it is a Unix-executable, just like scantailor.

The dmg works, thank you!
