Using todays freshly downloaded compiled version of R-2.10.0 beta
let me pose this question once again:

myconn<-textConnection("print(11*11)")
source(myconn)
produces
[1] 121
Warning message:
In source(myconn) : argument 'encoding = "native.enc"' will be ignored

So I get a warning about a default parameter value I did not use myself.
This is somewhat strange.
Up to 2.9.2 this warning did not show up,
and 2.9.2 also has the encoding parameter.

source(myconn,encoding="unknown")
does not produce a warning.

Will it remain like this?
I am asking because then I have to adapt a certain mechanism in RExcel.



I think this is a bug, but it may not be serious enough to fix during code freeze, so there's a good chance it will remain in 2.10.0, but hopefully not in later releases.

I'll take a look today.
