Hello, All: What would it take to make ?iconv? portable? I ask, because I want to convert accented characters to vanilla ASCII, thereby converting, e.g., ?Ra?l? to ?Raul?, and Milan Bouchet-Valet suggested on R-help that I use 'iconv(x, ?", "ASCII//TRANSLIT?)?. This worked under Windows but failed on Linux and Mac. It?s part of the ?subNonStandardCharacters? function

Hello. I want to write my notes in Sweave in my own language (spanish). But my language has accents and when I run Sweave in R to translate my Snw file into the tex file the accents are translated into unrecognizable characters. For example, the word "cami?n" (truck) is translated into "cami??n" Somebody knows how can I do it? One solution I don't like is using a

Hi folks, I am having a problem rsyncing files with accents in the names. I've seen similar problems reported a few times before in the archives but they didn't seem to be referring to exactly the same problem as what I have, and I'm not good enough at Linux to solve my problem by generalising from the information there: sorry. Anyway, my specific details are this. I am running rsync

I am switching to a composite primary key (string and user ID) from the Rails conventional auto-incrementing integer primary ID. The table is large (2.5 million records) and I''d rather not discard the contents. The composite_primary_key gem doesn''t appear to support altering the table with a migration to do its magic, only creating a table from scratch. So I dumped the table

Hello Could someone please direct me to the correct commands for adding accents (grave and aigu) to a letter in a plot title, label, or in added text? I'm sure there's a handy list somewhere, but I've failed in coming up with the correct search words to find it. Thank you muchly! Jen

Hello, my application controller defines before_filter :set_charset def set_charset @headers["Content-Type"] = "text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" end Everything is fine and accents are rendered correctly in the browser. However, when I call a controller/action from Ajax (Prototype), the charset is not taken in account and accents are garbage displayed (''?''

Greetings, (using acts_as_ferret) So I have a book title "M?ngrel ?Horsemen?" in my index. Searching for "M?ngrel" retrieves the document. But I would like searching for "Mongrel" to also retrieve the document. Which it does not currently. Anyone have any good solutions to this problem? I suppose I could filter the documents and queries first which something

Okay, I've had some fun there. Let me tell I am no samba pro, so the patch below _should be tested and tested again_ in _your_ environment before doing anything close to putting your patched samba into production. It can possibly break everything. You have been warned. The mail is somehow longish, because sending a quick (and dirty) patch without any explanation seems wrong to me. And

hey people I'm new to the list and would like to say thanks to everyone that has worked on syslinux/isolinux. It's one of those tools that everyone uses at some stage but no-one ever really takes much notice of it - mainly because *it just works*. So congrats ... Now onto my question - I am customizing Fedora Core and I want to change the isolinux boot.msg screen to display some

Hello, I wrote a RoR app on OSX and SQL Server. The DB uses SQL_Latin1, so I use Iconv to convert to UNICODE every dynamic text I show on the pages (Iconv.conv(''utf-8'', ''iso-8859-1'', string)). That''s been working fine until I deployed the app on a debian box. Since then, the accents are shown as question marks, and I don''t know why. The

All, I'd like to automatically output text from R to HTML. In doing this I've run into trouble with non-ascii characters, as my browser (and presumably others) does not render such characters correctly. For example, the 'fancy' single quotes associated with summary.lm are multi-byte characters on my platform. This particular problem is solved by options(useFancyQuotes=FALSE).

Hi, How can I include accents and signs like '?' '?' in the plots generated by R? I try, but R automatically transforms the name ex: > countries <- c("M?xico", "Espa?a") > countries [1] "M\216?xico" "Espa\216?a" > I've seen in some Spanish texts about R how is it normal to include labels of the plots and other names with

Hi, I've a problem with the accents. How do I configure Xapian to ignore the accents in the search/indexes? Thanks, Nuno Mariz

I have an openoffice spreadsheet with a column of character strings. Some of them contain accents. I want to read it in R so I have saved it as a csv file using Western Europe (ISO-8859-1) character set (the default, I've tried other sets but it doesn't help). R reads it fine with CharMatrix<-read.csv("test.csv",header=F,sep=",",as.is=TRUE); Say I wan't to

Hi, I am using libxapian in a C++ project (hence I am using Xapian's C++ API) and some user has requested that search requests should ignore accents. E.g. when the user searches for "Herr Müller" he expects that "Herr Muller" is also a search hit. Is this possible in Xapian? Do you have any links to the documentation of that feature? Thanks for your help, Kim

Hi everyone, I have a very annoying character encoding problem.
