Dear all,
I clicked "File-New Script" to open a R Editor, typed some commands in
it and then saved it to a file. If the location where I tried to save
the script contained Chinese Character, R Editor complained,

It is not a bug in the editor. It may be a bug in iconv or other parts
of the handling of wide characters in the save routine. I can see how
the code can be simplified, but we really need to be able to reproduce
this, and surely that was not the real example. (One of the problems is
that the editor title has to be in the native encoding, so this has to
be done in a Chinese version of Windows.)
