[R-SIG-Mac] font encoding issue

[Denis Chabot]

Hi,

I like to comment my programs, and often I do so in French.
But accented vowels in a R editor window get screwed up in the R 
console, so that

# exemple ˆ suivre

becomes

 > # exemple à suivre

(other french accents become just as ugly).

I suppose this is a font encoding error. Can it be fixed, or is there 
something in R itself which prevents it from even displaying such 
characters?


Sincerely,

Denis Chabot
