We tried running this code in python 2.7 with clips - v6.3, kivy- v1.11.1. The error we are getting is on line main(sys.argv) saying "Module clips has no attribute SetExternalTraceback". And we think that this issue arises because pyclips is not installed in our system. But while installing pyclips we are facing the follow issue.
When we tried to install pyclips-1.0.7.343.tar.gz, downloaded from https://pypi.org/project/pyclips/#files, in order to run this code. But we faced a issue that said download Microsoft Visual C++ 9.0 from Microsoft website. We successfully installed that, then also it is giving this error.

The traceback indicates that the module is using python2 print syntax, and therefore is not compatible with python3.
The error in your title doesn't appear in your post, so I don't know what that's about, but it probably isn't related to this core issue.
