Thanks for these helpful indications. This seems to be related to the
RGtk2 package :
# Before loading RGtk2
> as.numeric(".1")
[1] 0.1
> as.numeric(",1")
[1] NA
Warning message:
NAs introduits lors de la conversion automatique
# After library loading
> library("RGtk2")
> as.numeric(".1")
[1] NA
Warning message:
NAs introduits lors de la conversion automatique
> as.numeric(",1")
[1] 0,1
I send a copy of this post to the RGtk2 package maintainers.
Thanks for your help,
