I built an R shiny app that uses rclipboard library where the content of a text area input is passed to the rclipButton.
i.e. rclipButton( , , clipText=input$textAreaInputId , , ..)
But when this copied text is pasted somewhere, the Unicode encoding doesn't work.
‘ becomes ‘
’ becomes ’ ... and so on ....
Some extended ASCII characters like curly single and double quotes get changed into some Latin encoding. I changed the encoding of the text using Encoding(name_of_variable)="UTF-8" and passed to the rclipButton() function, but when the text is pasted the encoding doesn't change. It gets converted into latin encoding like previous.
