Bug Description

When I execute screenruler in the terminal, I got a error as the following,
/usr/bin/screenruler:35: invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII)
/usr/bin/screenruler:35: invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII)
/usr/bin/screenruler:35: syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting ']'
APP_ARTISTS = ['János Horváth <email address hidden>']

And screen ruler is not started.

The program was installed from Ubuntu 10.04's software center.
The os version is ubuntu 10.04-amd64.
