> I could spend half an hour upgrading it to work with Python 3 but there's no reason to.

How about empowering people other than yourself to understand how the code works, rather than relying on them to decipher the precise way in which you "mixed bytes and strings copiously"?

What if someone else did it for you? Would you reject the PR on principle?



The code was not written by me. I merely found this code useful.

If the author, Adam, or someone else upgraded it I would be happy using it with Python 3. But the code works as is. I'm also happy using it with Python 2.
