TODO

- input appeared to be broken when tested on Win 7
- Create new dicts for the tokens for each request instead of using del on lingering project_id
- Possible rewrite...
	- to get the labels in use you need to get the unfinished tasks
	- to get the unfinished tasks you need a project ID
	- so I did have to get the project IDs
	- however, not sure I needed to get the label IDs, just the label names from the incomplete tasks
	- this is because actually, the /deleteLabel command requires the label names
	- the lesson here is "read the syntax of the final, vital command first and work back"
