UnicodeDecodeError on Mac OS with Python 3.6

[tfohlmeister]

I have Python 3.6 installed on Mac OS Sierra and running pip3 install cryptop gives me the following error:

Collecting cryptop
  Using cached cryptop-0.1.6.tar.gz
    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

    UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 1709: ordinal not in range(128)

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /private/var/folders/m2/d8ct83y13dl89j8xth4jwn8r0000gn/T/pip-build-hbta5suz/cryptop/

Any idea on how to fix that? Thanks!

I think MacOS defaults to ascii encoding.

As a workaround can you try export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 before pip3 install cryptop

I'll force the encoding in the next update. I haven't done testing on MacOS yet, let me know if there are any more issues.

Alright latest build forces utf-8 encoding for reading of the readme, let me know if there are any issues, you should need to export the env var

Thanks, latest version fixes this!
