Remove dollar sign from README.md commands (#584)

currently when copying code snippets one has to manually remove the dollar sign first. Consider: ```sh $ echo "this can't be copy pasted into terminal because of the initial $" ``` `bash: $: command not found` `fish: Expected a variable name after this $.` vs. ```sh echo "this is fine" ``` --------- Co-authored-by: Adrian Macneil <[email protected]>
