Executable should go to ~/.local/bin #135

In the XDG Base Directory Specification, they suggest that

User-specific executable files may be stored in $HOME/.local/bin.

Of course this is just a recommendation, but they also push for distro to add ~.local/bin to the user path, and I know this is the case by default in at least Ubuntu.

I think it would be beneficial (especially for beginners) to follow the XDG specifications since GNOME, KDE, Xfce and most big distro follow them.

I can try make the edit and propose a pull request myself, but I wanted to have your opinion before.
