...be substituted per character rather than per byte. (Platforms whose iconv() does transliteration silently plot the transliteration.) In a UTF-8 locale some transliterations are now done with a warning (e.g., dashes and Unicode minus to hyphen, ligatures are expanded, permille (?) is replaced by o/oo), although the OS may have got there first. These are warnings as they will continue to be replaced by dots in earlier versions of R. * The matrix multiplication functions crossprod() and tcrossprod() are now also primitive and S3 generic, as %*% had...
