Installing the camera plugin for TheSkyX

I downloaded the compressed file, expanded it and follow the ReadMe.

I launched TheSkyX, and pasted the two command lines in Terminal (I put the file install.bin in the Applications folder).

Terminal said :

iMac27 JCJ$ chmod +x install.bin

chmod: install.bin: No such file or directory

iMac27 JCJ$ ./install.bin

-bash: ./install.bin: No such file or directory

iMac27 JCJ$

What am I doing wrong ?

No reply ... This pushed me to dig into the Internet to learn how to write command lines in Terminal.

And I solved my problem and I provide the answer.

In fact the location where the file install.bin was located was unkown to Terminal.

The easiest way is to put install.bin on your Desktop and indicate this to Terminal in the following script :

cd ~/Desktop

Then you can type the two command lines :

chmod +x install.bin

./install.bin

And the install proceeds automatically :

TheSkyXInstallPath.txt found

installed at /Applications/TheSkyX Professional Edition.app/Contents

app dir exist

Detected platform: mac, if platform isn't correct, input your platform: 1.x86 2.x64 3.armv5 4.armv6 5.armv7. 6.armv8 7.mac:

Is that not nice ?
