[cse491] twill tests fail

Hey I was working on testing with odd usernames and passwords with twill and 
I've run into a problem. The username and password in question are '<>,./?;: 
[]{}_-+=' and "!@#$% ^&*()''" respectively without the quotes. They are 
already in the database and logging in with them works through Firefox and 
Selenium but when I try testing with twill, I get the following error: 

EXCEPTION raised at line 42 of 'basic-test.twill' 

     find "you are user <>,./?;: []{}_-+=" 

Error message: 'bad character range' 


** UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: bad character range
 -- 

I have a feeling that there is some kind of character escaping I should be 
doing. Any ideas? 

Thanks,
Alex
