[R] Wich character coding for source under Windows?

[Philippe Grosjean]

I know that R can cope with the different formats regarding carriage return
and/or line feed (the Unix, or Windows, or Mac convention), which is very
nice. However, it is not clear in my mind which character encoding is used:
ASCII, ANSI, other? There is not much differences between ANSI and DOS
encoding for instance, for the first 128 characters. But it is very
different for the rest.
Best,

Philippe Grosjean
