Credit goes to @astradamus for the installation instructions.
Should resolve #12

## Installation ##
All file paths are relative to your dwarf fortress installation directory
1. Override any conflicts presented by the following steps.
2. Extract all .dll/.so/.dylib files to `hack/plugins`. If your package includes multiple sets of these libraries, make your best guess as to which is newest (betas tend to come after alphas, higher numbers imply newer versions, etc.) and use that one.

You should use whatever version corresponds to your DFHack version, or it won't work at all.

Appreciate the credit, but yeah those directions were less 'production ready' and more 'flying by the seat of my pants'.

Don't disagree, only meant that it would be good to get some kind of official confirmation that my instructions are correct before making them official docs, because I was winging it and it worked for me-- I didn't test it with any other setups, it's entirely possible that I described something wrong (as @lethosor indicates).
