pidgin and unicode

[richiebbb]

Hi. I'm new to errbot and am using it with pidgin.

While using pidgin on windows:
Input:
!poll new Test
Output:
"Computer says nooo. See logs for details.:
String or Integer object expected for key, unicode found"

I'm going to fork it to change the input, just letting you know. Thanks for your work, guys!

Hey, so I fixed it by changing anything like:
title = arg
to
title = arg.encode

I believe that the start of the file that specifies utf-8 is probably my problem and I should've just written something else to replace it!
