Mac OS Sphinx Installation: too few arguments

I am currently trying to install Sphinx on Mac OS and while I managed to fix the issue where sphinx-quickstart could not be found, now when I want to execute it I get this error:

usage: sphinx-quickstart [OPTIONS] <PROJECT_DIR>
sphinx-quickstart: error: too few arguments

I'm really not too sure why it wants any arguments as every tutorial and installation instruction showed that this sphinx-quickstart script is just executed as-is to setup the whole thing and thus doesn't need any inputs.
Thank you in advance!

I have encountered the same problem. The solution is as indicated in the error message: you have to specify a project_dir.

If you want to start at the current path, just type:

sphinx-quickstart .
