atem -- metastock reverse
=========================

Why use atem?
-------------
- Very portable, should work on any system.
- Works for many metastock flavors (Equis, Norgate, stooq.com,
bbfinance.com, etc.)
- It's fast, factor 15-20 compared with the well known "ms2asc".
- Support of EMaster files. Most other tools are just ignoring them which
may results in wrong dates and loss of symbol descriptions.
- Simple but powerful command line interface.
- BSD open source license.

Installation
------------
Building from source requires a C++ compiler, like gcc/g++, clang/clang++
or icc/icpc. On Windows you could use cygwin or mingw.
Build from tar tarball works as usually:
./configure
make
make install
When building from git checkout you also need autoconf and gengetopt and don't
forget to type "autoreconf -vfi" first.
Usage
-----
By default atem reads metastock data from the current or given directory and
writes complete time series to stdout. Comma separated like this
$ atem -F, /path/to/msdata
