Summary [R] R 1.9.0, special characters in variable names.

2004-06-24 Thread Sixten Borg

Summary: 
The locale setting in the operating system seems to be involved in what confused me a 
little bit.
Thank you all for your help, especially the suggested work-around  data.frame(..., 
check.names=F) which works very well.

A mystery still to be solved is why two versions of R, running on the same machine on 
the same time, behaves differently.
Please do not respond to this on the list. I very much welcome you not to respond at 
all.

Sixten.

 Can we stop blaming R for things which are not its fault, especially as 
 that has already been pointed out twice this morning?

This is not what I would call a summary. A summary should:
1.  State the original question.
2.  Give a pre'cis of the responses.
