I had a script which using the kw-option ignore_invalid_chars (julia 0.4) read a file fine. Now this option does not exist anymore (https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/16058) and running it without it on my file gives:
julia> readdlm("AD281106_example.CSV")
ERROR: at row 2, column 3 : UnicodeError: invalid character index)
Stacktrace:

The file can be found here: https://gist.github.com/mauro3/8bf1448cf05356458710c02572722c88
I’m after a quick fix…
