step fails when variable names are long #13

Hi,

I find that step.lmerModLmerTest fails at some point when there are variables with 'long' names and their interactions. Renaming variables to one character and repeating works fine. In my example I had 10 variables plus their interactions.

Thanks for the report. The restriction is due to deparse which has a 500L characters limit. On the top of my head I don't see a way to circumvent this, but pull requests are always welcome.

I think we have this fixed now using af safer deparseing but without a reproducible example I'm not sure.
