Off the top of my head, but without checking, I was sure there are some plugin expression functions that accept full/normal keyword syntax, whereas some ignore it (or break if you try to use it for partial passing). I'm open to being corrected, of course.

<smartass-mode>To not confuse anyone, it is the arguments, not the keywords, that must be passed by position.</smartass-mode>

Very true, I would say this plug-in is a bit dodgy.

As an aside, could this like.. start being a requirement for new or updated plug-in expression functions, perhaps? It would be one thing if they NEVER took keyword syntax and we could assume it NEVER works, but at the moment it's an uneven mixture and there's no way of telling other than by trying and failing.

Alright, that worked. Thanks

I am not sure that this plugin supports keyword syntax. I suggest to provide all parameters in the exact order.

it returned totalCount as 65 even though the file has 10001 rows (66th row blank) even after giving stopReadingAtFirstBlankRow as 0 (it doesn't accept false or true as input but wants integer format even though the documentation help says boolean)

What value should we give to not stop at blank row?
