Hello,
In R under  Mac OS X 10.5.4 I've had problems when I've tried to read a data.frame with characters including tildes and accents.
For instance Floreña is changed to Flore\x96a and Ranchería is changed to Rancher\x92a 
In the code:  section<-read.table('Sectiondic.txt',sep='\t',header=T,stringsAsFactors=F,encoding=" ")
I've changed the  "encoding" argument but I have not could find the solution.
Any suggestion?

Thanks a lot

Carlos Cuartas
