Summary: NEEDINFO: rkward plots show ?? instead of native characters

Initial Comment:
rkward (version 0.4.9/0.5.0b, Ubuntu package) fail to show international characters: my native language - Lithuanian - characters, when entered in a plot dialog, display as ??? in the command code (and in the command output, of course).

See the screenshot for a proof.

Message:
And, to your last question: other KDE apps do display Lithuanian characters
just fine.

Message:
Here are the outputs you asked for
Tested on Kubuntu 9.04 i386
RKward version 0.5.1-pre3, package provided through rkward repositories

The bug is still there; by the way, it has been there since RKward 0.47
and maybe before, thought I have not tested before 0.47

in Konsole window:

dg at bala:~$ locale
LANG=lt_LT.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=lt_LT:lt:en_GB:en
LC_CTYPE="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="lt_LT.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=


and in rkward console:

> Sys.getlocale()
[1]
"LC_CTYPE=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_MESSAGES=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_NAME=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_ADDRESS=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_TELEPHONE=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_MEASUREMENT=lt_LT.UTF-8;LC_IDENTIFICATION=lt_LT.UTF-8"

Message:
Could you post the output of
   locale
run in a plain console, and
   Sys.getlocale ()
run in the RKWard R console?

Do other KDE applications display native characters ok?

Thanks.
