I have one part number with a comma, does Kicost work with these?

I think the workaround is to protect then between quotes:

Although now that I'm testing it, looks like it's working anymore...

Yes, I use a BT139B-600,118 and you need to add a backslash BT139B-600\,118

As @mdeweerd said:

https://xesscorp.github.io/KiCost

Be careful if the part have a manf# or distributor code with the ,, ; or \ characters, these have specific propose as shown in Parts With Subparts. They have to be preceded by \, example, for the NUP1301,215 code, use NUP1301\,215.

So, a note about this on README would be nice... the README is a good starting point for users to understand how to install and use tools.
