In my previous post, I brought up a question about Cyrillic symbols in R. Today I have faced another one. For example, we want to see our running processes:
test <- system2(command="tasklist",
stdout=TRUE,
stderr=TRUE,
wait = TRUE)
and what we see...
[1] ""
[2] "€¬п ®Ўа § PID €¬п бҐббЁЁ ь бҐ б Џ ¬пвм"
[3] "========================= ======== ================ =========== ============"
[4] "System Idle Process 0 Services 0 24 ЉЃ"
[5] "System 4 Services 0 580 ЉЃ"
***
"Iconv"
, which helped in the previous task - couldn't help here.
sys.setlocale
- too.
What can solve this problem?
I found a solution.
#/c - Carries out the command specified by string and then stops.
command <- function(command,
intern = TRUE,
wait = FALSE)
system(paste("cmd.exe /c", command),
intern = T,
wait = wait)
#changing our charset
command("chcp 1251")
[1] "’ҐЄгй п Є®¤®ў п бва Ёж : 1251" //say bye-bye to mojibake)
# and voila!
command("tasklist")
[1] ""
[2] "Имя образа PID Имя сессии № сеанса Память"
[3] "========================= ======== ================ =========== ============"
[4] "System Idle Process 0 Services 0 24 КБ"
[5] "System 4 Services 0 580 КБ"
[6] "smss.exe 380 Services 0 1 232 КБ"
