Why can't my couchapp generate new application?

Question

I installed couchapp using

$ env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64" sudo pip install couchapp

and there were no errors. But then if I want to create an application,

$ couchapp generate helloworld
$

Nothing happens...no new folder created, and no feedback from the terminal.

Also, when I use

$ help couchapp
-bash: help: no help topics match `couchapp'.  Try `help help' or `man -k couchapp' or `info couchapp'.

and the same thing happens for "man -k couchapp".

Does that mean my couchapp wasn't properly installed? But what may have happened?

Thank you.

Please note that the old couchapp tool is deprecated.

Try erica or kanso instead.
