Description

Hello everyone, good afternoon. I'm opening this issue because I'm facing an encoding problem in the data viewer of VSCode. This table, for example, shows words with accents in a strange way.
I believe this issue is related to the language server. I've tried several configurations but haven't been successful. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
R version: 4.3.3 (2024-02-29 ucrt)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the accented-text display problem in the VSCode data viewer with R 4.3.3, using the attached example as the reference. Trace whether the language server is involved and identify the encoding used at the display boundary; done means accented words render correctly without breaking other data.
