Thanks for the attention. So my windows locale is Russian (Cyrillic, Win-1251). I installed R-2.8.0-win32.exe. I've got a file with Cyrillic letters in its name, for example "C:\???.txt". When I try to open it from R menu "File->Source R code ..." it produces an error:
source("C:\\666.txt")
Error in file(file, "r", encoding = encoding) : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning message: In file(file, "r", encoding = encoding) : cannot open file 'C:\666.txt': No such file or directory the Cyrillic letters "???" in this case are somehow replaced with "666"

Can we please have a reproducible example, as well as all the

requested in the posting guide. There are literally tens of different ways to 'open files' in
R, and
some at least with Cyrillic file names. Nor is there any obvious difference between 2.8.0 and 2.7.2 patched. On Wed, 22 Oct 2008, asherman at ksu.ru wrote:
