Unable to choose different subreddit

[alzeric]

When selecting a subreddit other than "AskReddit" the following error occurs
Note: AskReddit works just fine, only happens if you change the subreddit in initserver.py

`Found config.ini

Fix
created a user_agent variable in reddit.py

Reason: on windows systems the config.ini import is pulling in the CRLF and header useragents don't like that

replace this line
reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id=settings.reddit_client_id, client_secret=settings.reddit_client_secret, password=settings.reddit_client_password, user_agent=settings.reddit_client_user_agent, username=settings.reddit_client_username)

with
reddit_client_user_agent = "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/89.0.4389.90 Safari/537.36" reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id=settings.reddit_client_id, client_secret=settings.reddit_client_secret, password=settings.reddit_client_password, user_agent=reddit_client_user_agent, username=settings.reddit_client_username)

Authentication is also broken on Windows for Reddit API + using the Config.ini

Fix:
Create more variables in reddit.py

`reddit_client_id = "CLIENT_ID"

reddit_client_secret = "CLIENT_SECRET"

reddit_client_password = "ACCOUNT_PASSWORD"

reddit_client_username = "ACCOUNT_USERNAME"

reddit_client_user_agent = "RedditDATA"

reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id=reddit_client_id,
client_secret=reddit_client_secret, password=reddit_client_password,
user_agent=reddit_client_user_agent, username=reddit_client_username)`

Suggestion movie all config.ini files into json file instead... would remove the CRLF issue for windows machines.
