over skip_header=True, since the latter is more opaque for no purpose. Also it makes me slightly antsy since skip_header is normally an integer, and True is, in fact, just an integer with a special __repr__: Nathaniel, that's basically my problem with `skip_header=True`. I still prefer my -1 to your "comments", but whatever, personal taste again. I'm not convinced by line 1353: unless you change it to asbyte(comment).join(first_line.split(comments)[1:]) you gonna lose the '#', aren't you ? With the 'index' way, we just pick the first one, as intended. But it's late and multitasking isn't really working for me now. I think you guys are looking for .split(comments, 1). -n Tadah! Thanks a lot!
