    Not working in Python 3.10

    I had to change the regex import to re to avoid problems but now PyInquirer don't let me execute the ascii.py. I read tha's because the last version of python 3.10.

    The error:

      File "/home/neko/Escritorio/videotoascii/ascii.py", line 8, in <module>
        from PyInquirer import prompt, Validator, ValidationError
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyInquirer'
