What command did you run above to make it show the help instructions? Use the same command there. It’s hard to tell whats going on in your terminal, but do not type any special characters in front of the word “butler”, (no $, %, etc.)

When you typed $butler login you actually ran your shell’s login command, because you mentioned a shell variable named $butler before the command that evaluated to an empty string and had no effect. The prompt you saw was not from the butler command.

You are trying to run butler from the wrong directory.

By default, the command line is starting in your user's root folder, but from the image, the Butler executable is inside "Desktop".

I don't know MAC, but in linux you would have 2 options.

move to the "Desktop" directory with

cd /Users/XXXXX/Desktop

And then you could execute

butler login

Another option is that you indicate the absolute path, just as you do when you call butler's help, that is, with

/users/XXXX/Desktop/butler login
