Subject: Use HOMEBREW_PREFIX/var by default for the postgres db

Copy the mysql way of doing things in so far as using a plist file avoiding
any need for root or other users and advising creating the database under
/usr/local/var

-Suggested next steps:
-
-    * Create a user for postgresql (we'll name it "postgres"). Do it via System preferences or by running:
-
-    $ sudo dscl . -create /Users/postgres
-    $ sudo dscl . -create /Users/postgres Usershell /bin/bash
-
-    * Create a databse:
+If this is your first install, create a database with:
+    #{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/bin/initdb #{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/var/postgres
 
-    $ sudo mkdir -p /var/db/postgresql/defaultdb
-    $ sudo chown postgres /var/db/postgresql/defaultdb
-    $ sudo su postgres -c '#{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/bin/initdb -D /var/db/postgresql/defaultdb'
+Automatically load on login with:
+    launchctl load -w #{prefix}/org.postgresql.postgres.plist
 
-    $ sudo touch /var/log/postgres.log
-    $ sudo chown postgres /var/log/postgres.log
+Or start manually with:
+    #{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/bin/pg_ctl -D #{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/var/postgres -l #{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/var/postgres/server.log start
 
-Starting:
+And stop with:
+    #{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/bin/pg_ctl -D #{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/var/postgres stop -s -m fast
 
-    $ sudo su postgres -c "#{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/bin/pg_ctl -D /var/db/postgresql/defaultdb start -l /var/log/postgres.log"
+If you want to install the postgres gem, include ARCHFLAGS in the gem install
+to avoid issues:
 
-Stopping:
+    env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install postgres
 
-    $ sudo su postgres -c "#{HOMEBREW_PREFIX}/bin/pg_ctl -D /var/db/postgresql/defaultdb stop -s -m fast"
-
-You can also alias the above commands in your bash profile to pg_start and pg_stop.
-
-Google around for org.postgresql.plist if you want launchd support.
-
-If you're wanting to install the postgres gem, include ARCHFLAGS in the gem install to avoid issues:
-
-sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install postgres
+To install gems without sudo, see the Homebrew wiki.
