Initial Comment: This is a tiny fix to the INSTALL file to show how to install the help files. More steps were are added so that the install solution is cleaner.

Message: We might have to wait until bug #3390786 gets fixed. However, I vote to include these instructions anyways as the bug must get fixed soon I suppose.

Message: Hello, the instructions in this patch are not goint to work well with the current pd-extended, since it is not saving the new PATH into ~/.pdextended, seemingly because the path is from the pd-extended installation directory and it is being handled differently. I propose to tell the user to put the PATH straight to a directory with pix_opencv *outside* pd-extended installation directory. I would say it is bug on its own of pd-extended to filter out paths that are in its own installation directory. However, I propose a solution which will work in this case as well, but will not allow the user to cleanly install pix_opencv to the whole system. The attached patch is the new instructions I propose.

Message: just letting you know the patch is against the pix_opencv external inside the svn repository for Pd.
