[Dev] chandler hacker newbie

[Philippe Bossut]

Nice! Thanks Lisa.

There's a potentially very useful but under developed "Troubleshooting 
Chandler" page in there:
    
http://wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Documentation/ChandlerTroubleShooting

Would be nice to keep it in mind and add stuff there whenever we run 
over a user problem. I edited the "Chandler won't launch" tip though I 
have to admit that my tip for Macintosh is deficient. I can't run 
Chandler from the command line when using a downloaded binary... (works 
from an svn download though...). I'm missing a step but which one?

If someone who knows the trick (Bear?) could correct the tip, that would 
be great.

Cheers,
- Philippe
