Hi,On my system (see below), it works fine (inputing the code below at the R prompt). Make sure that the encoding of the input file is encoded UTF-8.

Hi, I ran into this issue previously and managed to solve it, but I've forgotten how and am getting frustrated... I have a data frame (see below) with scandinavian characters in R (2.7.1) running on a Win Xp-computer. I save the data frame in an RData-file on a usb stick, and load() it in R (2.8.0) running on OS X 10.5. Now the name of the data frame and all factor labels with scandinavian characters are scrambled. How do I make R in OS X read my data frame?From what I've managed to find in the list archives and the FAQ I either1) run Sys.setlocale("LC_ALL","en_US.UTF-8") ### Doesn't change anything or 2) run defaults write org.R-project.R force.LANG en_US.UTF-8 in the terminal, which doesn't help either. I must admit that I couldn't quite follow what documentation i found on locales, so I might have messed up somewhere along the line. Many thanks in advance for your help!
