Do I need to tell emacs to use a particular character encoding for the ESS buffer? How? I expected this should "just work" (display the right character é) More problematic, when I try to enter é in the *R* buffer, it freezes/hangs the whole emacs window. C-g does not help/cancel, only way to get out is to tell windows to kill emacs. Any ideas? Below is the environment from my eshell, if that helps. Thanks in advance!
