fread incorrectly skips header on this file #1625
Description
Activity
Try it again with
fill = TRUE.Perhaps that should be added to the warning message. Or we should load length(header) number of columns by default, and provide the warning that informs about
fill=TRUE.Are you going to work on this? If not, I'd prefer it to be moved to v2.0.0.
