Hi,
My first email to r-help and as I am not sure about the issue, I wanted to ask for help first.
The comments under this thread <https://github.com/ropensci/stats19/pull/83> outline a particular string from a dataset which seems to be read by R on Windows differently to Linux and MacOS and also to bash on Ubuntu Bionic. There seems to be some weird and unidentifiable (to me) characters in front of the `Accidents_Index` column name there causing the length to be 17 rather than 14 characters.
I have inspected the string as best as I could and cannot see why we see the output from a Windows machine.
Is it an issue in `read.table()`?
Thanks
