Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Prefer pwd to install dir for temp files

Temp files are project specific and thus can stay in the current project
directory.

Also breaks things if the package is installed in a read-only location.
Which could be expected because you don't generally expect the program
directories to be modified (except by the package manager).

 Manim is an animation engine for explanatory math videos. It's used to create precise animations programmatically, as seen in the videos at [3Blue1Brown](https://www.3blue1brown.com/).
 
 ## Installation

+Manim runs on python 3.7. You can install the Python requirements with
 `python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt`. System requirements are
-[cairo](https://www.cairographics.org), [latex](https://www.latex-project.org),
-[ffmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org), and [sox](http://sox.sourceforge.net).
+[cairo](https://www.cairographics.org), [ffmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org), [sox](http://sox.sourceforge.net), [latex](https://www.latex-project.org) (optional, if you want to use LaTeX).
 
 ### Directly
+Clone this repository and in that directory execute:
 ```sh
-git clone https://github.com/3b1b/manim.git
-cd manim
+# Install python requirements
 python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+# Try it out
 python3 -m manim example_scenes.py SquareToCircle -pl
 ```
 
+### Installing into your system
+For the previous "direct" method you always have to have this git repository. alternatively you can install it permanently in your system and run it on your own scene files:
+
+```sh
+# Inside repository - Install manim (also installs Python requirements)
+python3 -m pip install .
+
+# Now you don't need the repository anymore and can run it in other directories
+cd anywhere
+manim.py example_scenes.py SquareToCircle -pl
+```
+
 ### Directly (Windows)
 1. [Install FFmpeg](https://www.wikihow.com/Install-FFmpeg-on-Windows).
 2. Install Cairo. Download the wheel from https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pycairo. For most users, ``pycairo‑1.18.0‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl`` will do fine.
