This commit guarantees full Python 2 and Python 3 compatibility. It also massively improves the performance on multi-processor machines, by using multiprossing.Pool.imap() to delegate the file reading and string processing to sub-processes.
Only drawback in the current version is the missing of the periodic logging of the currently processed file.
