This program is available as:

Other versions may be available depending on your OS. I(JimmXinu) don't directly support these:
- Arch Linux: The CLI can also be obtained on Arch Linux from the OS repositories:
pacman -S fanficfare
...or from git via the AUR package (which will also update the calibre plugin, if calibre is installed).
