OK, don't worry about that. I'll try to send an updated spgrass6 when I have 
adequate net access. The problem is that GRASS writes UTF-8 as the encoding 
into the XML header from --nterface-description, but the French translations 
seem (on my XP machine) to be in latin1, that is the 0x.. spell eacute (\'{e}) 
in latex, then "fin" from "défine...", the first non-ASCII string in the output 
for g.region.
 
The fix is to insert "latin1" into the header, so I've updated the package to 
allow the user to do this from within R

Emne: [GRASS-stats] Sys.setlocale for GRASS6.4



Good afternoon,

Sorry bothering you with this on the list, but one of you might know how to 
list the locale available on my computer.
In order to try running GRASS6.4 on my machine (with windows XP), Markus 
Neteler advised me I needed to set locale to "French_France.UTF8"

I tried Sys.setlocale("LC_ALL", locale="French_France.UTF8") but R doesn't seem 
to find this setting
Warning message:
In Sys.setlocale(category = "LC_ALL", locale = "French_France.UTF8") :
  la requête OS pour spécifier la localisation à "French_France.UTF8" n'a pas 
pu être honorée, the warning message meaning the request was not available.

How do I check I can use the locale proposed ? Shall I download it from 
somewhere or change something on windows ?

Thanks for any hints

Alex
