[R-sig-Geo] readOGR and nonASCII character

[Agustin Lobo]

Hi list,

Is there any way to get readOGR() to correctly read
non-ascii character strings from the dbf file? I've
checked and my dbf file correctly displays
names with accents, but once read into R
accents are substituted by wrong symbols.
