install mtr without gtk

I recently switched from MacPorts to Homebrew. I can't say there was anything wrong with MacPorts, I think I just wanted to try something different, and maybe it'll be a little faster.

Installing ports is generally quite easy, but the one that I always have to re-lookup is how to use mtr without the stupid gui interface. Seriously, I don't know anyone who uses it. Also, on OS X, it has to kick up X-Windows which is even more annoying.

Anyway, the command line way to install mtr without all the X stuff is the following:

brew install mtr --no-gtk
