Hi,
During a recent CRAN upload procedure, I was reminded of the following
regarding R-devel:
o R CMD check now warns on non-ASCII .Rd files without an
\encoding field, rather than just on ones that are definitely
not from an ISO-8859 encoding. This agrees with the
long-standing stipulation in 'Writing R Extensions', and
catches some packages with UTF-8 man pages.
o R CMD check now warns on DESCRIPTION files with a non-portable
Encoding field, or with non-ASCII data and no Encoding field.
So if we need UTF-8 encoding for the DESCRIPTION and *.Rd files, would it
be sufficient to have an "Encoding: UTF-8" line in the former and a
"\encoding{UTF-*}" in the latter? Thanks.
Cheers,
