I also have El Capitan and cannot even install Homebrew.  Copied and pasted into terminal, as specified on the Homebrew page:  /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebr...er/install)" and all I got was "illegal variable name".

You'll have to take that up with Homebrew. We don't support it here. Alternatively, try a manual install.

hi i have copied the homebrew code into terminal and when it come to entering the password the terminal does not allow me to type this in is there any other way of downloading the iplayer automator version 3.00 any other way is there any advice someone can give me look forward to your response

Do you mean that when you type you password into the terminal that no character appear?

If that's the case then that's by design and not a problem. The terminal doesn't display password entry. Just type it in blind and hit enter and it should start doing it's thing.

did what you said yesterday and seems to be stuck on installing home-brew need help with this hopefully some one will help can't understand technical talk sometimes wish there would be a version 3 just instant download without using home-brew
