macOS / Unix workaround:

ANI_CLI_PATH="$(command -v ani-cli)"

cp "$ANI_CLI_PATH" ~/ani-cli.backup

git clone https://github.com/pystardust/ani-cli.git -b coolans_patches ani-cli-cool
cp ani-cli-cool/ani-cli "$ANI_CLI_PATH"
chmod +x "$ANI_CLI_PATH"
perl -pi -e 's/\r\n/\n/g' "$ANI_CLI_PATH"
rm -rf ani-cli-cool

ani-cli --version

This replaces the installed ani-cli script with the version from the coolans_patches branch.

Rollback:

cp ~/ani-cli.backup "$(command -v ani-cli)"
chmod +x "$(command -v ani-cli)"

NVM just had to put sudo -i before it so it gave me root permission for multiple commands. works great now
