Add some hints on invoking the script using `-m` #85

Working with some baggers today, I discovered that on both Windows and Mac, it was non-obvious what it means to run the command-line program. On the other hand, if they've run pip, they likely can also run python or py (Windows). This change provides a hint on how to do just that.

I'd also be open to updating the README to use this method as the default description on how to invoke the behavior.

Great idea! We recently hosted a Software Carpentry workshop and some of the attendees were briefly blocked on similar usability points.

I just merged c0e99012b899b64f240d3047c180dcb8c1fdd981 with your updates & a few other changes.
