Hey, this is my first question here, so forgive me if i my be clumsy.
I want to use Encoding to set the encoding of a character vector, but it doese not seem to work. See example. > x <- "16-03-02" > Encoding(x) [1] "unknown" > Encoding(x) <- "latin1" > Encoding(x) [1] "unknown" Is this intended? Actually i want to change encoding of a character vector generated by list.file on a linux computerwith UTF-8 file encoding, rstudio encoding is iso8859-15. Any hints? best Tilmann ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
