Hello dear useRs and wizaRds,

I am currently developing a package that will enable to use administrative map 
of Poland in R plots. Among other things I wanted to include region names in 
proper Polish language so that they can be used in creating graphics etc. I am 
working on Windows and when I build the package it is complaining about 
non-ASCII characters R code files.

I was wondering what would be the best way to properly implement them in a 
platform-independent way so that they can be used in computations as well as in 
producing PS, PDF and other graphic output. Unfortunately I have a limited 
knowledge of encoding schemes etc. Is it OK to include them in Windows-1250 
encoding (default for Polish locale, as far as I know)? I believe this problem 
is frequently confronted for other "non-latin1" languages. If it is not the way 
to go, I would be very grateful for suggestions.

Thanks in advance
and kind regards,

Michal Bojanowski
