Package: miller
Version: 6.4.0-1

Thank you very much for maintaining miller.

I like, use and respect it.

The main reason I'm writing is to report a
circumstance where miller 

    ignores an empty row of data and 

    moves all subsequent rows up.

I don't want to over-react, but I'm worried that
shifting data might lead downstream applications
to misinterpret it.

Here's a small example that elicits the behavior:

    $ echo -e "a,b\n1,2\n\n5,6" | mlr --csv cut -f a

At least on my computer, it responded with

    a
    1
    5

I expected to see

    a
    1

    5

The guy maintaining debian's package, Stephen
Kitts, seems to think it used to work with version
5.x.

At least for me, both versions 

    6.2.0-1 and 

    6.4.0-1

of miller ignored the blank row, both 

    with and

    without

"--ragged".

Feel free to contact me with any questions or
concerns.

Kind regards,
Kingsley

PS: Normally I'd report bugs with Debian's "reportbug"
    command line utility, but at the moment, at least
    mine is crashing with the following python error:

        AttributeError: module 'collections' has no attribute 'Mapping'

    So I'm trying the instructions for sending bug
    reports via e-mail at

        https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting
