the link to raw R code for my package. I have been successful at building the package on GNU/Linux, but building on Windows fails. I have used R 3.2.3 in both cases. On Windows, using readLines, this is the result of the Line 1: [1] "???#' Check, Install and Load CRAN & USGS GRAN Packages"
When I view that line via my webmail and using Chrome browser on Windows I see a string which seems to start: lower case i possibly with an umlaut closing guillemet inverted question mark hash symbol whereas the GNU/Linux example just starts hash symbol Hope that helps someone
On GNU/Linux, using readLines, this is the result of Line 1: [1] "#' Check, Install and Load CRAN & USGS GRAN Packages" Can someone offer suggestions on how to fix this character issue for Windows package development?
I can't see any difference there. Is that the point, or do you see a difference? What is the exact error message you get when parsing? Duncan Murdoch
I have created the R code with the Kate text editor. I have not had this issue in the past with any of my R packages using the Kate text editor. I have a few packages that have the same issue. Thank you. Irucka Embry
