mfile_skip getting ignored in pf.add_parameters()

[kmarkovich]

Hi, I am trying to add parameters from an ascii file (attached) that has some rows at the top that need to be skipped. Getting an error "could not convert string to float: 'ncols'" which suggests that pyemu is still trying to read that first line.
AWC_subset.txt

hey @kmarkovich,
Thanks! looks like you have caught one! I'll get a fix plumbed in.

[kmarkovich]

right on, thanks @briochh !

@briochh mfile_skip should still preserve those skipped lines when writing out the file, no? looks like it's dropping them in the written out file

[briochh]

it's a good point @kmarkovich, I think the answer should be probably, yes. Seems our (lazy) preservation of headers might have been limited to list-like files. I'll look at a patch. Might take a moment.

@kmarkovich, I have a probable fix pushed to develop now. See how this works for you.

works like a dream!
