This was from a change I pushed to PyPI. @VaasuDevanS reverted it back to v1.0 (thanks! 😄). I have pushed an update to PyPI (v 2.0.3) and also created a Pull Request with the changes.

The cause of the problem is that my text editor trims trailing whitespace when I save, and for some reason this messes up the display of the characters. Ideally this would somehow be fixed in the source code. For now I just turned that setting off and made the change I needed to make.
