Thanks!
The problem is that only UTF-8 and latin1 area available , but for cases in
which encoding of the dbf is different (i.e. IBM850 or Western Europe
(DOS/OS2-850/International
as recognized by OpenOffice in the case I'm dealing with now) I can read
in QGIS and write with QGIS
as UTF8 or latin1.

You can try something like this
shp <- readOGR()
df <- apply(s...@data, 2, as.character) # if

Encoding(df) <- "latin1"
s...@data <- as.data.frame(df)

Hi!
Is there any way to read the dbf of shp files that contain
non-ascii characters? I've tried with encoding="UTF-8"
or latin3 as for scan, but this argument does not exist for
readOGR (or writeOGR)
