Hi,

I have a data frame that includes several names that (if typeset correctly) require accented characters not available in the ASCII character set.

I'd like to include this data frame as example data in an R package. I'd also like the R CMD check warning about the use of non-ASCII characters to go away, in part so I could submit the package somewhere that wouldn't balk at the presence of the warning. (I gather from older posts that there are environment variables to skip this check. Those will work for me personally but will not necessarily appease the maintainers of sites like CRAN where I might want to submit the package.)

Is there any way to use the correctly accented characters by setting a different character encoding or equivalent for the data frame? Or am I forced to remove the offending accents in order to be ASCII-pure and thus leave people and places with an incorrect representation of their names?

    Kevin
