[oXygen-user] Mac users: oXygen installer available through homebrew

Hi Franz-Josef,

The problem you described has now been fixed:

  https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/pull/1899

To ensure you get this fix before testing the installation of oXygen
via homebrew over an existing installation, be sure to run `brew
update` then `brew cask install oxygen-xml-editor`.  You will get
this:

```
$ brew cask install oxygen-xml-editor
==> Downloading http://mirror.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Editor/MacOSX/VM/oxygen.dmg
######################################################################## 100.0%
==> No checksum defined for Cask oxygen-xml-editor, skipping verification
Error: It seems there is already an App Suite at '/Applications/Oxygen
XML Editor'.
Error: nothing to install
```

And the original installation won't be overwritten.  You'd need to
manually remove the oXygen folder before installing it via homebrew.

Thanks,
Joe
