error ascii codec #10

Closed chtiprog closed 9 years ago

chtiprog commented 9 years ago

1) I added a new credential with an unicode character

➜  ~  pysswords -a
Name: #######
Login: ########  
Password: 
Type again: 
Comment: site français

2) Pysswords throwns an error when listing credentials

➜  ~  pysswords   
ERROR:root:'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 816-817: ordinal not in range(128)

Hello,

Pysswords doesn't handle unicode input from python2.

For now to fix your credential you can open the Pysswords for your credential and edit the comment manually this time using no unicode character.

for example, for a credential with Name: "example.com" and a login: "john" and a Pyssword database at the default path: "~/.pysswords" you can do:

{EDITOR} ~/.pysswords/example.com/john.pyssword

Thanks for opening this issue.
