P8tool can't seem to write files
Hi, I've just setup picotool but any command that tries to create a file seems to be failing. I've followed the installation instructions exactly, but I get the following traceback whenever I try to run the build or write commands.
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Users\\kyle\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python310\\lib\\site-packages\\pico8\\game\\empty_023.p8.png'
My python is version 3.10.2, pip is version 22.0.4 and picotool itself. I'm running picotool on Windows 10.
Has anyone else run into this issue? Or perhaps there is another reason why picotool is failing to write temporary files in its package directory?
Possibly fixed by https://github.com/dansanderson/picotool/pull/90 , I'll try to get this merged in.
So, I added the one line modified mentioned in the PR and now the error is based on not passing a string to the bytes() function. Wondering if perhaps I'm doing something else wrong here? I've included the whole stack trace, apologies if it's a bit long.

The command that caused this error is as follows, main.lua is a file which only contains "print("hello world!")".
p8tool build test.p8.png --lua ./source/main.lua
