Could you please repost to the R-devel list, with some more details? As
far as I know Farsi would be our first right-to-left language, so I'd
expect problems. I don't know if they are solvable with a reasonable
effort, but that's the place to get started.
Examples of details:
Do other displays of Farsi strings in R work properly? e.g.
cat("some Farsi string") or print("some Farsi string").
Can readLine() read a text file with Farsi text and display it properly?
What is the usual encoding used for Farsi text?
