Hi Vinh,
It works for me out of the box, no need for Chinese locale or R specific tricks:
Variable type: numeric
variable missing complete n mean sd p0 p25 median p75 p100 hist
Petal.Length 0 150 150 3.76 1.77 1 1.6 4.35 5.1 6.9 ▇▁▁▂▅▅▃▁
Petal.Width 0 150 150 1.2 0.76 0.1 0.3 1.3 1.8 2.5 ▇▁▁▅▃▃▂▂
Sepal.Length 0 150 150 5.84 0.83 4.3 5.1 5.8 6.4 7.9 ▂▇▅▇▆▅▂▂
Sepal.Width 0 150 150 3.06 0.44 2 2.8 3 3.3 4.4 ▁▂▅▇▃▂▁▁
My bet is that it's your emacs font which doesn't recognize those Unicode
characters.
In my experience DejaVu is among the most complete fonts so I do this in my .emacs:
(set-face-font 'default "DejaVu Sans Mono-9.5")
You can see all fonts on your machine with by calling (font-family-list).
HTH,
Vitalie
