CLI doesn't accept strings as typed, and does not cast input as integer when needed

First no-no:

What is the name of the image?
~/Desktop/berd.png

OK, so I need to put quotes around my image name. Not that bad, but now...

python /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/imgscii/imgscii.py

How many columns do you want your ASCII art to be?

TypeError: integer argument expected, got float

I enter an integer and it thinks it's a float? Looks like you need to do some casting... int(input).

I also tried typing int(40) and no dice.
