I've been attempting to use CSVDeleteColumn /ptrn to remove all columns that begin a character or a set of, by entering /^ptrn however it does not match any columns, but does show msg "CSV: 1 column deleted".

Remove the ^ and it matches many of them that contain the string, deletes all matching columns. Same when using /ptrn$

I do update to the latest version of the plugin on a regular basis, fyi.

Tips?
Thanks!

sorry, did not see this issue earlier. Is your problem, das /^pattern does not match but the plugin messages a positive message?

Perfect! Thanks!
I still know not to use any metacharacters as mentioned, but at least the plugin does not misrepresent its results. :)
