Hi, We found a (to our eyes) strange behaviour that might be a bug. First a little bit of context. The 'units' package allows us to set the unit using both SE or NSE. E.g., these both work in the same way:
units::set_units(1:10, "μm") #> Units: [μm] #> [1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 units::set_units(1:10, μm) #> Units: [μm] #> [1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 That's micrometers, and works fine if the session charset is UTF-8. Now the funny part comes with Windows. The first version, with quotes, works fine, but the second one fails. This is easy to demonstrate from Linux: LC_CTYPE=en_US.iso88591 Rscript -e 'units::set_units(1:10, "μm")' #> Units: [μm] #> [1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 LC_CTYPE=en_US.iso88591 Rscript -e 'units::set_units(1:10, μm)' #> Error: unexpected input in "units::set_units(1:10, μ" #> Execution halted However, if you use the first version, with quotes, in an example, and the package is checked on Windows, it fails too (see https://ci.appveyor.com/project/edzer/units/builds/22440023#L747). The package declares UTF-8 encoding, so none of these errors should, in principle, happen. Am I wrong? Thanks in advance, regards, Iñaki ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
