ascii decode exception about rainbowstream HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi @kura - thanks for report 👍 Can you provide more information as below ?

• Does this happen repeatedly ?
• At that time did you typing something in the prompt ?
• Are you using the default prompt ?
• What is your OS , and if Linux : what distro is it ?
• Ugh.. is that you in your avatar ? :)

It's happened once, I tried debugging it further but couldn't see any issue in the tweet or the retweet. I am also at work so couldn't dedicate much time too it, I also hate ascii codec error. >_> It might be as simple as ensuring # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- is at the top of each file?

The user that retweeted it has tweeted previously and caused no codec exception so it's not that users name or anything.

I was not typing anything in the prompt, it was a stream message.

I'm not using the default prompt but the prompt itself works without issue.

Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit, Python 2.7.6, installed in a virtualenv using Pipsi 0.8 with virtualenv 1.11.6.

Taylor Swift has been my avatar across the Internet for years now, I do change which picture of her I use every so often though. 👅

Thanks for the details information.
The UnicodeDecodeError... could happens when decode in Python 2 went wrong, which means the str2u in the following line

g['decorated_name'](g['PREFIX']) + str2u(current_buffer))

Here current_buffer is current string if you was typing something while a new tweet show up in stream, so I guessed you typed some non-ascii characters, but it seems not that case.

Twitter's data sometimes can be strange. Let's stay for a while and let me know if same error occurs again 💥
