I was browsing some recent R news at http://developer.r-project.org/blosxom.cgi/R-devel/NEWS/2016/01/03#n2016-01-03 And reading this item: "tapply() has been made considerably more efficient without changing functionality, thanks to proposals from Peter Haverty and Suharto Anggono. (PR#16488)" But I found that the link in the item goes to a page about the GUI, not tapply:

Hi Everyone, I recently has some problems formatting DOIs correctly in a pkg submitted to CRAN. Kurt kindly informed me that in the man pages they must be \{doi:XXX} (noted in https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#User_002ddefined-macros) and in the DESCRIPTION they must be <DOI:XXX> (not specifically noted anywhere). I wondered if others had similar problems

Recently I was trying to cite a package where the authors have ? and ? in their names. I found that on Windows the citation() function did not return the authors' names at all, but on Linux there was no problem (sessionInfos at the bottom): On Windows, no author names are returned: #--------------- > citation("readr") To cite package ?readr? in publications use: (2017).

Hi Duncan, Thanks for your reply. Yes, it does seem to be specific to the CTYPE setting to Chinese on Windows. If I set it to English using Sys.setlocale() there is no problem, then back to Chinese and the authors disappear: Sys.setlocale("LC_ALL","English") citation("readr") #' To cite package ?readr? in publications use: #' #' Hadley Wickham, Jim
