Hi,

Your script is so wonderful - strange Google hasn't done it, but thank you!

But I seem to have issues with special characters. I got the following error, when running:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "star-greader-posts.py", line 88, in
print "Starring %s - id %s of feed %s" % (title, id, feedVal)
File "C:\Python27\lib\encodings\cp850.py", line 12, in encode
return codecs.charmap_encode(input,errors,encoding_map)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character u'\u2026' in position
37: character maps to

When looking up the \u2026 char it's a three dots (...)

I'm running Python 2.7 on WinXP (Danish).
