Turkish Language Encoding Problem in R Studio

Question

I am using R Studio for creating plots for economic variables. But in our language when you don't use our specific letters as "ğ,ş,ı,ü,ç" the word means different. And even sometimes it means swearing. I can't create graphs with this letters. I tried to use this command;

Sys.setlocale(category = "LC_ALL", locale = "Turkish")

The output is

OS reports request to set locale to "Turkish" cannot be honored[1] ""

How can i solve this problem? Any idea?

If you have the same problem and your system is Mac. First open terminal and then copy this code:

defaults write org.R-project.R force.LANG en_US.UTF-8

paste and run. I solved. I hope it works for your system, too.
