I have used "sudo"

sudo /home/mint/.nvm/versions/node/v22.2.0/bin/node /home/mint/.nvm/versions/node/v22.2.0/bin/npm install -g ascii-silhouettify

[meatfighter]

You're right. Sorry about that. It also looks like you have a recent version of node. I'm not a npm deployment expert. The project depends on the sharp library. It's listed as an external dependency. But npm should pull it down automatically. It is possible that root-privileged user doesn't have access to node because of a path issue. You can try something like: sudo ln -s $(which node) /usr/bin/node or sudo env "PATH=$PATH" npm install -g ascii-silhouettify You can also toss npx into the mix: sudo npx npm install -g ascii-silhouettify You might actually want to try it without sudo: npm install -g ascii-silhouettify

Thanks @meatfighter

In my case, I was able to install using:

npx npm install -g ascii-silhouettify

And then, I have to manually set as executable the file:

/home/mint/.nvm/versions/node/v22.2.0/bin/ascii-silhouettify

So it is solved for me. Thanks, and great utility!
