Suddenly after using roxygen, all ä letters (I'm living in scandinavia) gets outputted as the ugly ä. Why? And how can this be fixed?

Show us your `sys.info()` and `sys.getlocale()`. A reproducible example would be useful as well. – Brandon Bertelsen Jul 29 '15 at 23:57

There is no sys.info() or sys.getlocale() tried both and they both give no object found error. Don't know about reproducibility, but I was writing some documentation code when it started. All ä's look good in code, but when outputted they become the ugly version. – uncool Jul 30 '15 at 09:53

Excuse me, that was a typo. `Sys.info()`, and `Sys.getlocale()` – Brandon Bertelsen Jul 30 '15 at 13:05

[Mojibake](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mojibake): `UTF-8` encoding of `ä` character is `0xC2`,`0xA4` but in code page `ANSI 1252` each separate hexadecimal value represents respectively: `0xC2`=`Ã` and `0xA4`=`¤`. Not much more to say; perhaps [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/5066790/3439404) could help. – JosefZ Apr 21 '16 at 07:10
