stop codon (*) causes failure #14

Hi, to start I have really enjoyed eukcc, so thank you!

I have recently discovered that if my protein files include stop codon marks (*) my job fails with the following error message:

If I sed remove all the * eukcc works fine.

I guess, it would be nice if eukcc could handle stop codons being include in .faa files. That being said, this is more a request for an improvement rather than an immediate bug... I am just going to remove all the *s for now.

Thanks!

Thank you for reporting this. I addressed this in the documentation, but will leave the bug open until EukCC removed this stop codon itself.

For now I assume removing them ahead of submission is fine and should not break any workflow.
