Hi,
I have a question about special character: when I create a data
frame including some special characters, like 'ø', it displayed as
'<U+00F8>'. I understand that it's one encoding code for 'ø'. but I
want to display the letter as 'ø' on my screen. And more, when I save
the data frame to a local position, it was also save as the encoding
code instead of the special characters, anybody give some practical
tips, I have little knowledge about encoding stuff. My operate system
is windows 7 Simple Chinese, I use R 2.15.3 64-bit.
You might be able to display more by using different language settings.
The problem is that R doesn't think your system knows how to display
those characters, so rather than displaying ? or similar, it displays
the Unicode encoding.
I don't have any experience working with a Chinese locale, so I can't
give specific advice on how to fix this, but the general advice is to
use a font which contains the characters you need. R won't switch fonts
in the middle of a word to handle special characters.
Showing us the result of sessionInfo() might be informative, but you
probably also need to tell us which font R is using. You can see that
in your Rconsole file, displayed by example(Rconsole).

x <- data.frame(part = c("målløs", "ny"))
head(x)
part
1 m<U+00E5>ll<U+00F8>s
2 ny
x$part
[1] målløs ny
Levels: m<U+00E5>ll<U+00F8>s ny
Thanks!
