  <p>I would like to skip the lines that have a hashtag. How do ask genfromtxt to skip rows that have hashtag symbols? </p>
  
  <p>NOTE: The hashtag does not need to be there. I just need to skip a user-specified rows. </p>
  
  <p>I know in IDL under READCOL one can do SKIPSTRING='#'. Is there something similar in genfromtxt? If not, what program/package I can use to read such a table and skip user-specified lines? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance! </p>
