Using this in my "~/.profile": export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
Yields this: $ Rscript -e 'print(9)' During startup - Warning message: Setting LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 failed [1] 9 This is confusing as the exact same environment works fine with other languages: $ python3 -c 'print(9)' 9 $ ruby -e 'puts 9' 9 ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
