Update brigadier.py to be Python 3 compatible #122
Description
Hi all,
I noticed that the original brigadier.py script was written using Python 2 syntax. This causes it to fail in modern Python 3 environments, raising errors like SyntaxError (for the print statement) and ModuleNotFoundError.
To ensure the script remains usable, I have manually updated it to be compatible with Python 3.
Key changes include:
Converting all Python 2 print statements to the print() function.
Replacing the urllib2 module with urllib.request as used in Python 3.
Correcting the handling of strings and bytes to align with Python 3's standards.
Updating the usage of the plistlib library and dictionary methods for Python 3 compatibility.
After these changes, the script now runs correctly in Python 3.x environments. I've attached the modified file, hoping it will be helpful to others who run into the same issue.
