Error message[edit]

Hi Rob. It would be nice if you gave some more information on how to get this thing started. I have been trying now, downloaded pywikipedia, did login.py, but now I get the following error message:

> python ratpatrol.py 
 File "ratpatrol.py", line 249
   """ report all errors for now:
            ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Ah, IC ... copy and pasting it through the wikitext causes the & entity names to get un-escaped ... see the unescape() routine. I'll have to modify the code a bit so it won't happen. Robert Ullmann 11:19, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Updated to fix that and various other stuff. You shouldn't have trouble once we get past syntax errors ;-) Robert Ullmann 12:15, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
