I often use Lyx/Sweave and I typically write in english. Today I had to write a document in Italian and, as many of you know, many italian popular words use ?, ?, ?. ?, etc. I discovered that if I type in Italian (that is there is at least one letter with accent) with the Sweave module selected lye is not able to correctly compile the document. I tried to change the input encoding, but it still does not work. I am attaching a basic lye file that illustrates the problem. ========= Lyx File #LyX 2.0 created this file.

There may be a ``more direct'' way of creating accented letters by changing encoding (or something like that) --- I wouldn't know. Others may have suggestions. But the foregoing will solve your problem (at the expense of a few extra key strokes). cheers, Rolf Turner> I discovered that if I type in Italian (that is there is at least one > letter with accent) with the Sweave module selected lye is not able > to correctly compile the document. > > I tried to change the input encoding, but it still does not work.

It might be better to post it to the LyX mailing list
(lyx-users at lists.lyx.org) since you are using LyX. Anyway, the problem
came from Sweave: you did not tell us your R version, and I suppose
you are using the latest version of R (2.14.0). There are two ways of
telling Sweave your UTF8 encoding (see ?Sweave); one of them is via
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}. In LyX, you need to set the document
encoding to "Unicode (utf8)" in Document
Settings-->Language-->Encoding. The next version of LyX (2.0.2) will
address this issue better.

That is exactly what I thought I would do. But the problem persist. In the document below I have added "\inputencoding utf8", yet LyX fails to compile. #LyX 2.0 created this file.
