I think this behavior is inconsistent with the documentation: tmp <- 'é' tmp <- iconv(tmp, to = 'UTF-8') print(Encoding(tmp)) print(charToRaw(tmp)) tmpfilepath <- tempfile() writeLines(tmp, con = file(tmpfilepath, encoding = 'UTF-8'), useBytes = TRUE)
[1] "UTF-8" [1] c3 a9 Raw text as hex: c3 83 c2 a9 If I switch to useBytes = FALSE, then the variable is written correctly as c3 a9. Any thoughts? This behavior is related to this issue: https://github.com/yihui/knitr/issues/1509 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
