The user error of inputing excludes one string instead of a list of strings gives unexpected results #35

Open joelgoop opened 10 years ago

Since a string is also iterable, the program still runs, but it is almost impossible for a user to find the error based on output from the program. This error should be detected and communicated to the user.

Or, the "error" should be detected, and the string parsed and interpreted as a list of excludes :) (semi-colon separated or whatever)
