I would like to enable syntax highlighting for R Markdown (.Rmd) highlighting in TextWrangler. I managed to get syntax highlighting for .R files using this R.plist file (direct link to file). R Markdown has similar highlighting, so I have that file as a starting point, as I cannot find a similar .plist file for .Rmd files.
The issue I am having is that in RMarkdown, the code is between a set of ``` (three backticks) and the text (which is what I'd like to demarcate as comments) are the remainder of the file.
I would like to tell TextWrangler to only highlight what it sees between a set of ``` - currently, it highlights the entire file (including my text sections).
I thought editing the values for keys
<key>Open Block Comments</key>
<string></string>
<key>Close Block Comments</key>
<string>```</string>
would be a workaround, but it doesn't seem to help.
Edit, here is the Rmd syntax:
here is some text that is whatever I want.
```
in here between the backticks is some code
```
here is some more exposition
The code I'd like to highlight with R syntax is between backticks, whereas the text I'd like to display as a comment/without highlighting (whichever is easiest) is not demarcated.

I am writing an .Rmd file in VSCode using the VSCode R extension. The extension does a great job of highlighting and code completing r code inside code chunks. However, it does not highlight, or code complete, inline Latex code.
For example, this is how my inline Latex code looks like:
Now, if I change the language mode from R Markdown to Markdown as indicated in this question VS Code Latex Syntax in Markdown, then I get great Latex code highlighting and completion, as shown below:
However, when I do this I loose all highlights and completion for the r code inside the code chunks.
How do I set things up so that I have highlights and code completion for code chunks and inline Latex code?
I need to stop superscript before comma - , or full stop - .. When converting the Rmd file to HTML knitr makes comma superscripted as well. Example:
example.Rmd
MyTitle
========================================================
J.Smith^1, K.John^2, H.Gone^*.
example.html
Let me know if this was asked before, I can't find relevant questions.
You may insert HTML tags directly to Markdown documents. To toggle the "superscripting" mode, use sup.
MyTitle
========================================================
J.Smith<sup>1</sup>, K.John<sup>2</sup>, H.Gone<sup>*</sup>.
EDIT: You may also use round brackets to indicate exactly the part of text to be reformatted.
J.Smith^(1), K.John^(2), H.Gone^(*)
EDIT: This has changed for Markdown V2
2^10
2^(10)
2^10^
2^(10)^
I have been saving some example R markdown html output to Word using pandoc. I actually only do this so I can add some page breaks for easier printing:
system("pandoc -s Exercise1.html -o Exercise1.docx")
Although the output is acceptable I was wondering if there is a way to keep the original syntax highlighting of the R chunks (just as they are in the original knit HTML document)?
Also, I seem to be loosing all images in the conversion process and have to stick them into Word by hand. Is that normal?
Using the rmarkdown package (baked into RStudio Version 0.98.682, the current preview release) it's very simple to convert Rmd to docx, and code highlighting is included in the docx file.
You just need to include this at the top of your markdown text:
---
title: "Untitled" # obviously you can change this
output: word_document # specifies docx output
---
However, it seems that page breaks are still not supported in this conversion.
Why not convert the markdown directly to Word format?
Anyway, Pandoc does not support syntax highlighting in Word: "Currently, the only output formats that uses this information are HTML and LaTeX."
About the images: the Word file would definitely include those if you'd convert the markdown to Word directly. I am not sure about the HTML source, but I suppose you might have a path issue.
I really like using knitr in Rstudio and have been using it to write markdown presentations and data analysis. I want to use the same code and results in a paper and want to convert the code chunks in Rmd file ```{r} to the chunks of Rnw file << >>= #.
This allows using the same document and code written for presentation for the main paper as well.
Is there a way of converting between code chunks of markdown and Rnw files ?
or the entire file itself as apart from the difference in syntax of code chunks, they are quite similar in the markup (converting the text to latex is easy with say pandoc)
Instead of converting the whole document, you can just externalize your R code so it can be shared across different documents; see http://yihui.name/knitr/demo/externalization/
Once you have read_chunk('Rcode.r'), you can use ```{r label} in your Rmd and <<label>>= in your Rnw document, where label comes from the line ## #knitr label in the R script.
I work in R and deliver PDF file with Sweave, sweave(.rnw document). I need to put into my text a JPEG image. I didn't find any function on the web and have no ideas about how I could do that.
You include it just like you include an image in any other LaTeX document:
http://amath.colorado.edu/documentation/LaTeX/reference/figures.html#pdf
\includegraphics{myimage.jpg}
Put it in a LaTeX block not an R code block. As the link points out, you'll need to compile with pdflatex.
