Confusing line order in install.sh path suggestion for profile #180

curl -sS https://dl.begin.com/install.sh | sh

Begin was successfully installed to /Users/example/.begin
Manually add the directory to your $HOME/.bash_profile (or similar)
  export BEGIN_INSTALL="/Users/example/.begin"
  export PATH="$BEGIN_INSTALL:$PATH"
Run '/Users/example/.begin/begin --help' to get started

Scanning quickly, I grabbed the last part of the last line and added $HOME/.begin/begin to $PATH instead of $HOME/.begin. Took me a minute to figure out what went wrong. I think reordering the lines would help a ton:

Begin was successfully installed to /Users/example/.begin
Run '/Users/example/.begin/begin --help' to get started
Manually add the directory to your $HOME/.bash_profile (or similar)
  export BEGIN_INSTALL="/Users/example/.begin"
  export PATH="$BEGIN_INSTALL:$PATH"
