skipFirstNLines is documented but not released #1040

It looks like the skipFirstNLines config option is shown in the documentation, but it is not part of the latest release (5.4.1 as of the time of posting this)

Just had the same issue.

Tried installing the latest branch, but the method doesn't appear to exist/work.

My current workaround to skip the first 5 lines of the CSV file:

const skipFirstNLines = 5;
const options = {beforeFirstChunk: chunk => [...chunk.split('\n').slice(skipFirstNLines)].join('\n')};
papa.parse("myfile.csv", options);
