Dear useRs
I need to do graphs with dates in different languages on Ubuntu.
In Windows the following will plot the date axis labels in Spanish:
random.dates <- as.Date("2001/1/1") + 70*sort(stats::runif(100))
>language <- "Spanish"
>Sys.setlocale("LC_TIME", language)
>plot(random.dates, 1:100, xaxt="n")
>axis.Date(1, at=seq(as.Date("2001/1/1"), max(random.dates)+6, "weeks"))
Changing the language to "English" will have the same code produce a graph with
English labels.
On Ubuntu, attempting to change the locale language results in an error message:
'OS reports request to set locale to "Spanish" cannot be honored'
Is there another way of changing the axis labels for dates to a different
language on the fly?
Regards
Mikkel
