Hello, When a data.frame contains column names with accentued characters (UTF8 encoded), the alignement of the column names is wrong (extra spaces inserted).
For example : ------------------------------------------------ > Sys.getlocale() [1] "[EMAIL PROTECTED];LC_NUMERIC=C;[EMAIL PROTECTED];[EMAIL PROTECTED];[EMAIL PROTECTED];[EMAIL PROTECTED];LC_PAPER=C;LC_NAME=C;LC_ADDRESS=C;LC_TELEPHONE=C;LC_MEASUREMENT=C;LC_IDENTIFICATION=C" > print (data.frame(aaaa=1, b=2, c=3)) # (ok) aaaa b c 1 1 2 3 > print (data.frame(éééé=1, b=2, c=3)) # (extra blanks) éééé b c 1 1 2 3 -------------------------------------------------------------- This is probably due to fact that the number of white spaces to insert between the columns is computed using the length of the column names (in bytes) instead of their width (in characters), which are different in the example above. The problem is the same (extra spaces inserted) with print.data.frame(..., right = FALSE).
