Installing SAMGradientView

I'm not sure if anyone else had this problem, but when I was trying to install the pod SAMGradientView via terminal, I typed 'pod' (in the right directory) and was given a list of commands instead of the install process running.

After looking at some documentation, I determined that 'pod install' was the correct command to try & it worked! I'm not sure if CocoaPods updated their commands but I wanted to document this for the forums!

I have always used pod install. Did 'pod' work previously?

It never has for me, but it is the method Sam uses to install in the video. It seems for work for him, but it did not for me.
