Uniform tics, noteable arguments addition.

Browse Source 
Changed all N-tics for preformatted/code text into single tics if that code was sinle line (i.e. bash commands, compiler arguments)
Added --main-module, --module-dir to Notable arguments section.
Realized that the text <blah blah> was disappering, so changed it to `<bla bla>`. Need to confirm it success.

and its as easy as
1. ```tar -xvf chapel-1.11.0.tar.gz```
2. ```cd chapel-1.11.0```

You will need to `source util/setchplenv.EXT` from within the Chapel directory (`$CHPL_HOME`) every time your terminal starts so its suggested that you drop that command in a script that will get executed on startup (like .bashrc).
Chapel is easily installed with Brew for OS X

Compiling Code
--------------
Builds like other compilers:
```chpl myFile.chpl -o myExe```
`chpl myFile.chpl -o myExe`
Notable arguments:
* ``--fast``: enables a number of optimizations and disables array bounds checks. Should only enable when application is stable.
* ```--set <Symbol Name>=<Value>```: set config param <Symbol Name> to <Value> at compile-time
* `--fast`: enables a number of optimizations and disables array bounds checks. Should only enable when application is stable.
* `--set <Symbol Name>=<Value>`: set config param `<Symbol Name>` to `<Value>` at compile-time.
* `--main-module <Module Name>`: use the main() procedure found in the module `<Module Name>` as the executable's main.
* `--module-dir <Directory>`: includes `<Directory` in the module search path.
