This is related to the cli/platform/__init__.py, there we check what is
the platform using the Python "sys.platform" variable. Currently we only
check for "linux2" and "win32". I think that in Mac OS the value of
"sys.platform" is "darwin". So, if you can, try to modify that file so
that it has this content:

import sys

if sys.platform in ['linux2', 'darwin']:
    from cli.platform.posix.terminal import PosixTerminal as Terminal
    from cli.platform.posix.util import *

elif sys.platform in ('win32',):
    pass

Then check if it works correctly.
