Yes, they were cut out. type(data) returns '<type str>'.
The data was downloaded from a website, it starts with

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd";>

Even if it had special control characters in it, I do not understand the 
effect (printing only the first 50 chars).
But probably it is an issue with the terminal, since it is working fine 
on Windows.
