Hi Alejandro --

Probably you should ask the people responsible for the script, but 
perhaps it helps to ensure that your 'locale' is C, e.g.,

   Sys.setlocale(locale="C")

on many systems. Also working through the 'encoding' argument to 
source() might be helpful, ensuring too that you have not inadvertently 
converted a simple text file to a file with an unexpected encoding. The 
output of sessionInfo() and a reproducible example are always helpful.
