Installation with Pip gives UnicodeDecodeError

[titusjan]

When I try to install Exdif using pip i get the following error.

$> pip install exdir
Collecting exdir

It seems that there is a non-ascii character in the README.md file. Can you please take a look?

This should be fixed in #95, although the pip version is not yet updated. @dragly maybe it's time to make a new version - would you mind updating on pypi?

Thanks for fixing it.

BTW, I just made a new release of Argos, a data viewer for various file formats. It can also handle Exdir files, thanks to the plug-in that @luihabl wrote. Take a look if you're interested.

Looks very nice! Thank you for including exdir :)
