Readme install instructions shouldn't be wrong #349

Open

Description

@RieBi

In README.md it says that to install carnac using chocolatey you would use
cinst carnac
That, obviously, didn't work.
I used a different command:
choco install carnac
and it worked. It's good that I remembered how to install with chocolatey, but if not it I wouldn't be able to do it.

Readme needs to be updated. Or if that command is intended for different OS (I'm using windows) or something, it needs to be stated like that. Right now it's somewhat confusing.

      • Chocolatey: choco install carnac
      • GitHub Releases: Standard installer (CarnacSetup.exe) and Portable .zip (Carnac-Portable.zip).
