Hello

I'm using Lyx with Sweave on Mac OS X 10.5.8 with R version 2.10.1. When I compile Lyx documents, R is called from shell to process R code chunks contained in the Lyx document. Unfortunately, R does not automatically detect the correct locale when called from shell. I figured out that R uses the C locale in shell mode by embedding the following code in Lyx

<<echo=F>>=
sys.getlocale()
@

When I start R from the terminal and also in the R.app I get the correct locale:
de_CH.UTF-8/de_CH.UTF-8/C/C/de_CH.UTF-8/de_UTF-8

How I can I get the correct locale when calling R from shell?

Regards,
Erich
