[chuck-users] need help installing chuck

Does the miniAudicle work for you? Because that's the most
straightforward way to use ChucK. Certainly if you're mainly interested
in programming for the Monome, the miniAudicle is the best environment.
The installation of the command-line version is generally only necessary
for special cases.

If you're really intent on using the command line version, I suspect
that it's navigating to the chuck folder in the terminal that's tripping
you up.

Where is your chuck-1.2.1.3-exe folder? If it's on your desktop, then
you'll need to type:

cd ~/Desktop/chuck-1.2.1.3-exe/bin

(likewise, if it's in your Downloads folder, replace Desktop above with
Downloads)

then:
sudo cp chuck /usr/local/bin

(Just to echo Hans' comment, you don't need that line about 'sudo chmod
755...')
