Since I have updated R to 4.1.0/4.1.1 versions on W10, I have 2 problems concerning French accented characters.

In RGui menu, accented characters are not correctly displayed 4.0.3/4.1.0 display comparison
In R console in Emacs, accented characters are also modified (with 4.1.0 but also with 4.0.3) Print output with R4.1.0

Is someone facing the same issues? Did you solve them?

Thanks in advance for your help. Newb'R.

What's your `Sys.getlocale()`? – Roman Nov 15 '21 at 21:56
Hello Roman, here is lately the result of Sys.getlocale : Sys.getlocale() "LC_COLLATE=French_France.1252;LC_CTYPE=French_France.1252;LC_MONETARY=French_France.1252;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=French_France.1252" I have the same issue when using Python with Emacs. It must come from Emacs (although I have a lot of lines in init.el to overcome this problem (but it doesn't work ...). Nice end of day. – Newb'R Nov 22 '21 at 16:05
I deleted all the lines with 'utf-8 like (set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8) in init.el and it works now both with R and Python. I will test which line(s) lead(s) to issue. Thanks for your help. Newb'R. – Newb'R Nov 23 '21 at 09:42
