brew istall = command not found

you typod mokuro again

Yeah…just realized that!

Ok, you will need to install homebrew too.

First run

$ /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

This might take a bit, afterwards I recommend running

$ reset

to make sure everything is in place
Finally, you can run the brew command from earlier again

$ brew install mecab

And then try the install again

Rocket Science…

When I run the first command:

I can’t even type something in there…

You can, it just doesn’t appear. it’s a common mac-linux pittrap. Just type it in blind

LOL! That worked.
Now it seems to be stuck at this point

Give it a few minutes, go drink a coffee or something

pip3 install mokuro:

Just in case I want to undo all this…how can I uninstall Homebrew and the other stuff?

Try

$ pip3 install wheel

already satisfied!

Is it possible to uninstall homebrew again? (just want to make sure >_< )

You don’t need to, that’s currently not your issue. It is uninstallable, but it’s nice to have

You can maybe try a few things

$ pip3 install --upgrade pip3

And

$ pip3 install fugashi

The Upgrade did not work.
The second command gives me

I need to go offline now, will be back later. Thank you for your help so far…see you later

This should be solvable by doing

$ pip3 install --ignore-installed fugashi

It’s a slight bit of a nuclear option, but it should work

Sorry for the late reply. I finally was able to give this a try.
After entering the above command I got the following

After that I did a reset and ran the $ pip3 install mokuro and that worked just fine!!!

Then I tried the $ mokuro /path/to/XXX
After a short wile I got the following two errors

Do you have any idea what I did wrong?

The path you supplied isn’t right. That ‘/path/to/’ bit is a placeholder, not part of the actual path.

In macOS’ Terminal you can drag a file or folder into the window and it’ll insert the correct path for you. So just type 'mokuro ’ (including the space) and then drag the Hiromiya folder into the Terminal and run the resulting command.
