Install/test problem with full Nativescript CLI install

I've done an apparently clean install of the Nativescript CLI on MacOS X, yet when I run tns doctor it fails: 

bash-3.2$ /usr/local/lib/node_modules/nativescript/bin/tns doctor

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/nativescript/lib/common/verify-node-    version.js:32
            console.warn((`${os.EOL}${nodeWarning.message}${os.EOL}`).yellow.bold)
                  ^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token ILLEGAL

The former problem was due to an obsolete version of node,js; installation of node 10 (LTS) solved it.

The latter problem was due to a writhing nest of pythons - the command 'python' linked to python 2.5, while the install script invoked python 2.7 and its attendant user addons. Relinking 'python' to the python 2.7 executable fixed the issue.

The problem is that you are using very old Node.js version. NativeScript CLI requires at least Node.js 6, but I recommend you to use current LTS - Node.js 10. Node.js 0.10.29 (which is your current version) does not support the syntax used in NativeScript CLI's codebase.
