need help installing chuck
ive been interested to try out chuck as a programming language for my monome, but i seem to be having some difficulties with the installation. im on a macbook pro 10.6.8 btw. i downloaded the chuck executable as well as miniaudical. i opened up the chuck executable which opened up a chuck folder with a bunch of things in it, and i stored them both in my applications folder. in the chuck manual, theres a section i included in an attachment that talks about replacing the x's with the actual "directory name". what is a "directory name" and how do i find out what my directory name is? id really like to get this going, thanks in advance for any help! hopefully i ll be chucking soon.
soooo... is there anyway i could be able to get in touch with someone who could help me get chuck working correctly?

Yes, a little bit of patience. In my time-zone it's 8:30 am on a Monday morning.

"Directory" is just a different name for what you call a "folder", so; the x-es here will be the version name. The step mentioned there is needed to get the chuck executable in your computer's "path" so we can run in from the terminal. Yours, Kas.
sorry about that, didnt mean to be rude. i downloaded the executable, opened it, and looked at the files in the finder. the main folder is called chuck-1.2.1.3-exe. so i typed this command in the terminal: %>cd chuck-1.2.1.3-exe/bin but i got an error that says no such job. any ideas what i might have done wrong? thanks.
Get to the folder first: cd chuck-1.2.1.3-exe/bin/ then sudo cp chuck /usr/bin/ and sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/chuck You will get asked for your password for the last two - that is ok, you are installing it into your system. Than you can go to the folder with examples and try it out: chuck name_of_the_example.ck On 1.8.2011, at 20:09, SA NALEWALKE wrote:

It seems that on Mac OS X 10.6.8, this can be replaced by sudo cp chuck /usr/local/bin/ as this directory is included in echo $PATH
and
sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/chuck
And this unnecessary, as one is copying it (and it it is correctly set when unpacking with 'tar -xzf'). Hans
