Dashes in input filename lead to empty output

See original GitHub issue

$ pydeps.exe -o out.svg my-script.py
dummymodule.py:113: WARNING: SKIPPING ILLEGAL MODULE_NAME: my-script

Leads to an empty file (no image content) and shows a warning. However this works fine:

$ pydeps.exe -o out-new.svg myscript.py

Output can contain dashes. Input files not. Seems like a bug

I believe this should be closed as wontfix because dashes in modules names are kinda illegal. So user should rename their file, and this tool should not have to deal with this, because as author showed, it is not trivial to do. My 2 cents.
