Twitter configuration issue #101

Open adcampbell37 opened 6 years ago

adcampbell37 commented 6 years ago

Apologies if this has been resolved elsewhere, but I couldn't find an answer. I'm trying to configure my twitter plugin on Creepy for OSX, but once I enter the code that it generates I get a box that simply reads: "We were unable to obtain the access token for your account, please try to run the wizard again. Error was" with no further explanation. Is there an issue with the program, or am I doing something wrong?

On windows the "Ordinal not in range(128)" error is thrown when you try to test the configuration.

This program is quite old and has had no development in 5 years and with the release of PY3, there's some issues. https://github.com/ilektrojohn/creepy/blob/master/creepy/plugins/twitter/twitter.py Needs to be updated to not use str, I presume.
