You might try:
read.table("http://www.talgalili.com/files/aa.txt", header = T,
fileEncoding = "UTF-8", sep = "\t")

Hi Tal,
I am not even sure what is going on, but I think it is OS specific.
When I
run your script on a Mac, I got the desired result:
read.table("http://www.talgalili.com/files/aa.txt", header = T,
sep =
"\t")
אחת שתיים שלוש
1 12 97 6
2 123 354 44
3 6 1 3
This is the sessionInfo():

When doing the same on a PC via virtual machines on the same Mac, I
got:
read.table("http://www.talgalili.com/files/aa.txt", header = T,
sep =
"\t", as.is = TRUE)
X.....ª X...ª...... X...œ....

Hello dear R help group,
I am trying to read a .txt file, with Hebrew column names, while
keeping
the
column names looking well in R - but without success.
I uploaded an example file to:
http://www.talgalili.com/files/aa.txt
And am trying the command:
read.table("http://www.talgalili.com/files/aa.txt", header = T,
sep =
"\t")
This returns me with:
X.....ª X...ª...... X...œ....
1 12 97 6
2 123 354 44
3 6 1 3
Instead of:
אחת שתיים שלוש
12 97 6
123 354 44
6 1 3
Any suggestion or clarification will be appreciated.
Best,
Tal
