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

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).

XML is a good tool reading data from web within R.

In both R and JSON (and many other languages), unicode characters can be escaped using a backslash followed by a lowercase "u" and a 4 digit hex code. However when deparsing a character vector in R on Windows, the non-latin characters get escaped as "<U+" followed by their 4 digit hex code and ">": > x <- "I like \u5BFF\u53F8" > cat(x) I like

This is a continuation of the R-devel thread with subject "suggestion to fix packageDescription() for Windows users" : As I said there, a patch should rather address the underlying problem in packageDescription rather than a kludgy workaround patch for citation(). (For that same reason, Ben Marwick proposed to fix packageDescription() rather than the symptom seen in citation().)

Hi Duncan, I'm guessing I'll be able to look at this over the weekend/next week (probably closer to next week). It is on my list of things to do and I've just had a few other prior commitments that I have to finish first. Sorry for the delay. I'll chime in with a status update next week.

Hi Tomas, Sorry for the delayed response. I have tested the problem on the latest R-devel build (2018-04-27 r74651), and it still exists. RGui is always fine with Chinese characters, but some IDEs rely on the CLI version of R (e.g. Visual Studio Code with R plugin). >Your example print("ABC\u4f60\u597dDEF") is printing two Chinese characters, right? Yes. U+4F60, U+597D or C4E3,

I've tracked down where this is occurring, but I don't know how to fix it. Here's a summary: If the language in Windows is set to simplified Chinese (i.e. Chinese (PRC)) and message translations are installed, then on startup Rgui crashes when it tries to install the console popup menu. The crash comes when it gets an error trying to do a conversion using mbrtowc, and tries to

Hi there, Here is a minimum working example: ---------------------------------------------------------------- lower = 0 upper = 1 n_bins = 50 interval = (upper - lower) / n_bins bins = vector(mode="numeric", length=n_bins) breaks = seq(from=lower + interval, to=upper, by=interval) for(idx in breaks) { bins[idx / interval] = idx } print(bins)

Dear all, I clicked "File-New Script" to open a R Editor, typed some commands in it and then saved it to a file.

I'd be curious to know what others think of Rich's patch. If it is acceptable, I can spend time that I was going to look at it this week on another bug. -----Original Message----- From: Rich Calaway Sent: Friday, June 23, 2017 6:34 PM To: Nathan Sosnovske <nsosnov at microsoft.com>; Duncan Murdoch <murdoch.duncan at gmail.com>; Andrie de Vries <apdevries at gmail.com>
