Re: [R] Accents in R
Just to make sure people know:
The issue is the use of UTF-8 encoding in some recent Linux distros, as PD
said. We do plan to support UTF-8 fairly soon.
Try locale -a on your Linux machine. Mine has (for Spanish in Spain)
es_ES
es_ES.iso88591
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
es_ES.utf8
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

You need to set LC_CTYPE appropriately, and that is *not* any of those
containing `utf8'.

You need to find out which locales you can set in Mandrake. The
locale shown above
is the default when I start up my R.

Re: [R] Accents in R
Hello!
If you are using a GNOME-Terminal or if you are running R inside Emacs
just make yourself sure that you change the UTF-8 encoding before starting
R.

Re: [R] Accents in R
I don't know about "expression", but R 1.8.0 under Windows 2000
gave me the result you desire NOT the problem.
Someone else may tell you what is different, but this may help
narrow your search for a solution.

Hi,
How can I include accents and signs like 'ñ' 'à' in the plots generated by
R?
I try, but R automatically transforms the name
ex:
countries <- c("México", "España")
countries
[1] "M\216éxico" "Espa\216ña"
I've seen in some Spanish texts about R how is it normal to include labels
of the plots and other names with accents, but I can't.
I'm using R 1.8.0 in a Mandrake 9.0
Thanks,
Xavier

You'll need to get rid of UTF-8 encoding, since R doesn't know how to
deal with it. I'm not sure of the details on Mandrake, but I suspect
you need to diddle /etc/sysconfig/i18n or set some environment
variables (among the ones listed by "locale").
