What have you tried? read.table works perfectly for me with no language or encoding arguments. Here's a text file at the Linux command line:
$ cat greek.csv α, β 1,2 3,4 I just have to tell it to use comma separators and there is a header line. Here's R: > read.table("./greek.csv",sep=",",head=TRUE) α β 1 1 2 2 3 4 and I can get the columns in the usual way: > d[["α"]] [1] 1 3 > d$α [1] 1 3 But maybe this doesn't work for you. Did you try anything? What happened?
