mscheck's Issues

Stock names are truncated at 16 characters

Dear Chris - ty for updating pyms.py for python3. I have been teaching myself and learning how to do python but what you did is well beyond my comprehension - so apologies for reaching out. I am an aspiring trader and would love to use python for analysis rather than some prefab package.

It does seem there is a small bug in the code in that it truncates stock names to 16 characters for the more modern EMaster style formats?

Case in point the mscheck produces:

AFFINITY ENERGY
AFRICAN ENERGY R
AFRICAN GOLD LTD
AFT CORPORATION
AFT PHARMACEUTIC
AFTERPAY LIMITED
AGL ENERGY LIMIT
AGRICULTURAL LAN
AGRIMIN LTD ORD
AGUIA RES LTD O
AHALIFE HOLDINGS

Reduced copy of sample MS data using the Emaster is provided. If you are no longer active with this project, please let em know and I will put it out to Codementor.io (and share results with you). Thanks, Lex
