I'm using list.files() on my home directory, like this: crnt.files <- list.files(dir.to.check, full.names=TRUE, all.files=TRUE, recursive=TRUE)
With dir.to.check set to the full path to my home directory. After a while I get: Error in list.files(dir.to.check, full.names = TRUE, all.files = TRUE, : 'translateCharUTF8' must be called on a CHARSXP This happens on one of my two machines, not the other. Presumably there is a "file" somewhere in my home directory that, well, isn't a file? Or maybe has some strange character in its file name? That maybe isn't valid in my LOCALE? I would appreciate some advice on how to find this "file" so I can get rid of it, or rename it, or something. Also, does this message possibly represent a problem that the R developers should pay attention to? I'm not sure.
