after the arrival of CPUFriend to use PowerManagement settings from other SMBIOS than the current system setting I recognised that the option to modify the plists within the kext on a copy of it in a working directory not restricted by SIP would come in handy.
While I was comprehending the code I also figured this brilliant piece of software deserve a better documentation and hence I updated the readme file to better reflect some of the additions that were added in later revisions (e.g. override of board-id or model-id or even the very informative debug option) that would show up in the help print, but were not obvious from the start.

Not sure if Pike is still using this repository after he retreated from the community a while back. I will give it a try anyway.

For users that do not intend to change IOPlatformPfluginFamiliy.kext in System of would like to keep SIP enabled, it is now possible to use a copy in an unprotecxted location. This comes in handy if resultig plist is further processes for use with CPUFriend
Added man page style use as well as specific instructions for use of kext in a working directory rather than the original system location
Minor ammendments at the end of the README (Step 7)
Clarified that -b and -m modify the target plist to be modified/copied to.
Added hint that modification of kext invalidates signature
