Dataset glove.840B.300d.txt character issue

[AleMuzzi]

The involved dataset, at line 52343, presents what it seems to be ". . .", but it's not.
At this line, the code of the example sif_embedding.py breaks because the split() at line 15 of auxiliary_data/data_io.py splits wrongly the word and its embedding.
After a debugging on that line it turned out that the dots of ". . ." are actually dots while the spaces are the code 160 of the extended ASCII table.
Probably this file is not encoded in ASCII but in Unicode, however (for practical reasons) the test has been made with ord() so the output is an ASCII code, but the problem doesn't change.
