Macs and androids have non-english keyboards that are easy to integrate and use.
How to use non-english, non-latin scripts in plots?
plot(1:10,main="हिन्दी नाम")
This gives me empty boxes at title (latest Rstudio on latest mac).
After some (more) trial and error, here is a possible direction:
par(family="Kohinoor Devanagari")
plot(1:10,main="हिन्दी नाम")
This does the job somewhat! But not quite satisfactory as the words don't show up properly.

I want to remove those red lines in r studio.
I upgraded to the latest version, according to someone's suggestion.
But it is not working.
The problem occurs when I write Korean words.
The default encoding is UTF-8.
I found a similar problem here, but it didn't work for me.

This is a bug -- unfortunately, the RStudio diagnostics system does not correctly handle multibyte characters in R Markdown documents on Windows. This will hopefully be fixed in the next release (v1.3).
ggplot(data=NULL,aes(x=1,y=1))+
geom_text(size=10,label="ক্ত", family="Kohinoor Bangla")
On my machine, the Bengali conjunct cluster "ক্ত" is rendered as its constituents plus a virana:
I have tried several different fonts to no avail. Is there a trick to making conjuncts render correctly?
EDIT:
Explicitly using the unicode still doesn't not render correctly:
This renders correctly for me:
print(stringi::stri_enc_toutf8("\u0995\u09cd\u09a4"))
This still gives me the exact same result as before
ggplot(data=NULL,aes(x=1,y=1))+
geom_text(size=10,label="\u0995\u09cd\u09a4", family="Kohinoor Bangla")
Why is there a difference between the console output and ggplot output?
I'm not familiar with the Bengali language, but if you would look up the unicode characters for the text that you want to render, you could simply use those in geom_text()
# According to unicode code chart, these are some Bengali characters
# U+099x4
# U+09Ex3
ggplot(data=NULL,aes(x=1,y=1))+
# Substitute 'U+' by '\u', leave the 'x' out
geom_text(size = 10, label = "\u0994\u09E3")
Substitute the unicode characters as you see fit.
Hope that helped!
EDIT: I tried your last piece of code, which gave me a warning about the font not being installed. So I ran it without the family = "Kohinoor Bangla":
ggplot(data=NULL,aes(x=1,y=1))+
geom_text(size=10,label="\u0995\u09cd\u09a4")
Which gave me the following output:
From a visual comparison with the character that you posted, it looks quite similar. Next, I ran the same piece of code on my work computer, which gave me the following output:
The difference between work and home, is that work runs on a linux, while home runs on windows, work has R 3.4.4, home has R 3.5.3. Both are in RStudio, both are ggplot 3.2.0. I can't update R on work because of backwards compatibility issues, to check wether the version of R might be the problem. However, you could check wether your version of R is older than 3.5.3 and see if updating relieves the problem. Otherwise, I would guess it is a platform issue.
Is there any way out here?
Evince is the standard PDF viewer of Ubuntu. The immensely popular platform for statistics, R, started its life as a Linux package. But when I do a plot in R -- vanilla, no frills, no user options -- and save it to PDF, I can never see axis labels, titles etc. In evince, even though they appear in every possible viewer (Acrobat, Foxreader, Sumatra, qpdfview) on any OS. I have included qpdfview as default in memeapps.list, but when I double-click a PDF file, I get evince. Is there any help except uninstall evince (which I don't want to do as it helps with other file formats).
Just started working with R in Arabic as I plan to do text analysis and text mining with Hadith corpus. I have been reading threads related to my question but nevertheless, still can't manage to get the REAL basics here (sorry, absolute beginner).
So, I entered:
textarabic.v <- scan("data/arabic-text.txt", encoding="UTF-8", what= "character",sep="\n")
And what comes out textarabic.v is of course, symbols (pic). Prior to this, I saved my text in utf-8 as I read in a thread but still nothing shows in Arabic.
I can type in Arabic R but scan brings the text in symbols.
Also read and tried to implement other user's are codes to make Arabic text function but I don't even know how and where to implement them.
I added to R, tm and NLP packages.
What do you suggest for me to do next?
Thanks in advance,
I just posted an answer saying that you must definitely be using R on Windows before I saw your comment that you're on OSX. On OSX the situation is not quite so dire. The problem is that you're using too old a version of R. If I right remember, anything prior to 3.2 does not handle Unicode correctly. Try installing 3.3.3 from https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/ and if necessary re-install the packages you need. Then you should be fine. بالتوفيق!
I use R and I find some of the embedded editor's characteristics annoying. Typically, it would be convenient to have the possibility to add tabs or even bette to do splits like you can do it with vim.
I have a Mac running Mavericks and I use Macvim. I want to use vim as my R editor, without using it as an IDE.
However, the syntax highlighting is not convincing. The functions are not recognized for instance.
I installed the Vim-R-plugin (I followed these instructions). However, I found no change in my syntax highlighting.
Do you have any suggestions?
R-Studio is a development environment for R. It is very light and powerful and it offers some embedded themes to highlight code.
You can use it as editor only...
