Need to chmod of .netrc #152

Hi,

After setting up the .netrc and running the downloader, I get the error

~/.netrc access too permissive: access permissions must restrict access to only the owner (None, line None)

This is fixed by

chmod og-rw .netrc

Perhaps that could be mentioned under "Step 1: Get Earthdata Login"?

I'm on a Mac but would expect the same behavior for linux
