urllib.request issue

[Ianleeclark]

While fixing #2, I ran accross an issue where if I install the script, I can't run xkcd-dl without getting a nag about request

xkcd-dl --download=934
Downloading xkcd from 'http://xkcd.com/934/' and storing it under '/home/tinyl_server/xkcd_archive/934'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/xkcd-dl", line 9, in <module>
    load_entry_point('xkcd-dl==0.0.5', 'console_scripts', 'xkcd-dl')()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/xkcd_dl-0.0.5-py2.7.egg/bin/main.py", line 314, in main
    download_xkcd_number()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/xkcd_dl-0.0.5-py2.7.egg/bin/main.py", line 286, in download_xkcd_number
    urllib.request.urlretrieve(complete_img_url, file_name)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'request'

I don't know if you're not getting this, but I am.

UNLESS, if I run python main.py --download=934 and I change import urllib.request to import urllib, then everything runs.

I want to submit a pull request for #2, but as it stands, I don't know if I'm going to be introducing more bugs into the program by doing so.

Why is Python 2.7 still a thing. I'm switching to 3.

I would suggest you use python 3.*. As the urllib2 module has been divided across several modules in python3.* named as urllib.requestand urllib.error.

Did switching to python 3.* resolve the issue? If so please close this issue and submit a pull request once you fix #2

[Ianleeclark]

Yes, it does resolve the issue.
