[Rd] symbol ¢ that stands for "cents" crashes R (PR#1444)
Full_Name: Ahmad Abu Hammour Version: 1.4.1 OS: windows 98 Submission from: (NULL) (206.216.65.147) I wanted to make a plot with axis y labeled as "Exchange Rate (in US ¢)". Just as follows: plot(ts(data0$uscrx,start=c(1975,1),freq=4),plot.type="single", ylab="Exchange Rate (US¢)",main="(e) Canada-US Dollar Exchange Rate") R stops after the word "US" and the following error message appears: "This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. RGUI caused an invalid page fault in module MSVCRT.DLL at 0167:7801447b.

"This seems to happen occasionally, and all the occurrences we have solved have been traced to faulty versions of msvcrt.dll. Try extracting the one to be found in the self-extracting archive ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/softlib/mslfiles/msvcrt.exe and put it in the rw1041\bin directory. Removing msvcrt.dll from that directory reverts to the standard behaviour. This fix has solved other problems too, for example incorrect results in the date-time functions." For me it works on WinNT4 perfectly.
