Rj and coding problems with strings with accented letters...

Hi, @jonathon.
I wanted to tell you that in the Rj Editor module (1.0.6), if one or more nominal variables (Data Type: Text) contains strings with accented letters, the R function used is unsuccessful (both with jamovi R and with System R).
This does not happen, for example, using the same function from RStudio.
Obviously if you delete these strings with accented letters, with other encodings, everything works.
It may happen that you receive a db with many of these variables with encodings as indicated and modifying the whole is a big job.
For clarity, I enclose a screenshot of jamovi run in debug mode and the use of a simple summary on one of these variables.

Do you think something can be done?

Thanks as always.

Cheers.

yeah, this is tricky, both R and windows don't handle unicode very well. so it often leads to breakage which is difficult to fix.

i'll take a look.
