Looks like the prompt for entering your key (in the instructions and animation) doesn't happen if you already have a .wakatime.cfg file in your home directory. (If you've added plugins for other editors, for instance.)

Adding a note to this effect to the README file might save ppl some time and confusion.

@pixelbandito you're right. Api Key will be asked only if it's your first time using WakaTime plugin.
