URL to file for encoding() example invalid

Open stefan-mueller opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

The man for encoding() lists the following example, but the file doesn't seem to be available anymore.

library(readtext)

myreadtext <- readtext("http://www.kenbenoit.net/files/01_er_5.txt")
#> Error in cache_remote(url, ignore_missing, cache, name, verbosity): Not Found (HTTP 404).

I will make a PR using a file from readtext's extdata folder instead.

File is here: 01_er_5.txt

But also I fixed it so that the file is there now, but use https://kenbenoit.net/files/01_er_5.txt

@kbenoit: When I wanted to show this example to the participants in Bremen, your website was down and it seems that this is still the case.

Working again but need to change https to http until I get another SSL certificate.
