Hi again:
I could make tha package (in Windows 7) but it does not run in Mac.
Please could you tell me how to make a package in Windows PC with source code
saved in utf-8 in the way the package runs on a Mac ?
One likely problem is that you need to declare in the DESCRIPTION file
which encoding you are using. The other problem is that you may not be
consistently using UTF-8 encodings. Since your system (as shown below)
defaults to Latin1, files produced by R will default to Latin1 encoding.
If you consistently use Latin1 and declare that in the DESCRIPTION,
your Mac should be able to work with the package.
In your other message you mentioned Unicode and UCS-2. UCS-2 is not
UTF-8, they are different. "Unicode" is ambiguous, but on Windows it
generally means UCS-2. As you found, R can read that, but it's not used
by default, so I would avoid it.
One other approach to this is to avoid non-ASCII characters. Then UTF-8
and Latin1 are the same, and you won't run into problems. But if you
are writing Spanish, that's not easy.

In my pc (where I create the package) :
l10n_info()
$MBCS
[1] FALSE
$`UTF-8`
[1] FALSE
$`Latin-1`
[1] TRUE
$codepage
[1] 1252
Thanks.

Hi,
I solved the problem as follows:
source(file="example.R", encoding="UCS-2")
Thanks

Hi,
I work with R on Windows, so I use ANSI encode; but when I run my projects on a
linux or mac pc, It fails, so I change the encoding to unicode (in the same mac
pc) and runs ok.
The problema is that I need tu make the package in mi pc (windows) and when I
save my sources as unicode it fails: I make source("mydile.R") and it return
tle following:
Error en eval(expr, envir, enclos) : objeto 'ÿþ' no encontrado
How can I resolve it?. I need to make the package in a windows pc ant it may
run ok on all the OS.
Thanks in advance.
