Summary
versto/usr/local/binby default on macOS and Linux$HOME/.local/bindefault for Windows-compatible shellsINSTALL_DIRon every platformWhy
The installer previously placed
versin$HOME/.local/binon every platform. That directory is often absent fromPATHin clean macOS and Linux environments, so the installer reported success but the documentedvers --versioncommand failed withcommand not found.Selecting the default after OS detection puts Unix installs in
/usr/local/bin, which is normally already onPATH, without changing the established Windows behavior.Fixes hdresearch/chelsea#2270.
