Hi, Consistent with recent reports (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e14/devel/11/06/0434.html) I have found what I believe is an error new to R 2.13.0 when reading a UTF-8 encoded file. Minimal example:
=========== filename: test.txt ================= 1 2 3 Я 4 ================================================ [note that the fourth column is a Cyrillic character; file is saved in UTF-8.] > read.table("/tmp/test") V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 1 1 2 3 \320\257 4 > read.table("/tmp/test",fileEncoding="UTF-8") V1 V2 V3 1 1 2 3 Warning messages: 1: In read.table("/tmp/test", fileEncoding = "UTF-8") : invalid input found on input connection '/tmp/test' 2: In read.table("/tmp/test", fileEncoding = "UTF-8") : incomplete final line found by readTableHeader on '/tmp/test' I'm using OS X 10.6.7 with the pre-packaged R binaries from CRAN.
