`basestring` variable not used in Python 3, add compatibility layer #5

Closed antonizoon closed 9 years ago

antonizoon commented 9 years ago

Since all strings are Unicode in Python 3, the variables unicode and basestring are no longer used. This patch makes these variables work again in Python 3.

However, the real solution is to modify get_boards() such that it no longer needs to use basestring. Though it has to be done in a way that both Python 2 and 3 will accept.
