Hi all,

     I have jut installed the foreign package (v 0.8-8) on my OS X 
machine, and have a bit of a problem writing out a data frame in SPSS 
format. Specifically, the code file (the .sps format file) seems to 
write 3 unprintable hex values instead of double quotes. For example, in 
the following output ...

VALUE LABELS
/
immDel
1 ###1###
  2 ###2###
  3 ###3###

  ... emacs tells me that the left-sided ### are the hex codes E2 80 9C, 
on the right we have E2 80 9D. I am supposing that I should be seeing 
double-quotes here? Interestingly, the data file, which also contains a 
quoted field, writes out the quotes without any problem. Does anyone 
have any ideas?

Thanks,

Jim
