Re: [Rd] issue with print()ing multibyte characters on R 4.0.4
I filed an issue for this on R's Bugzilla as well, in case this makes
it easier to track (This is my first time to submit a bug report,
please excuse me if I'm failing to follow the appropriate steps to do
this).

Yes, it was unfortunate that no one had reported it to the right place
before the release...

that does not escape non-printable characters, so as expected.
Considering the fact that it seems only Windows and macOS are
affected, I suspect this
is somehow related to this change described in the release note,
(though I have no idea
what change this is):
The internal table for iswprint (used on Windows, macOS and AIX) has been
updated to include many recent Unicode characters.

I am sorry: this was not intended but it was no one reported in the run
up to 4.0.4. It seems to be working in R-devel so I suggest you check
that or go back to 4.0.3.
It looks like a line in the iswprint table got deleted in the merge from
R-devel. I will try to set up some automated checks to see if I can
find any other problems, but that will take a few days.

Thanks for the report, I can reproduce this on Windows, we'll investigate.

[Rd] issue with print()ing multibyte characters on R 4.0.4
Hi all,
I saw several people on Japanese locale claim that, on R 4.0.4,
print() doesn't display
Japanese characters correctly. This seems to happen only on Windows
and on macOS (I
usually use Linux and I don't see this problem).
For example, in the result below, "鬼" and "外" are displayed in
"\u" format. What's
curious here is that "は" is displayed as it is, by the way.
