I use R and I find some of the embedded editor's characteristics annoying. Typically, it would be convenient to have the possibility to add tabs or even bette to do splits like you can do it with vim.
I have a Mac running Mavericks and I use Macvim. I want to use vim as my R editor, without using it as an IDE.
However, the syntax highlighting is not convincing. The functions are not recognized for instance.
I installed the Vim-R-plugin (I followed these instructions). However, I found no change in my syntax highlighting.
Do you have any suggestions?
R-Studio is a development environment for R. It is very light and powerful and it offers some embedded themes to highlight code.
You can use it as editor only...

Similar to Rstudio, Atom allowed you to run code segments on interactively rather than the entire script all at once. Is there a suitable Julia language IDE that is comparable to rstudio or Atom (juno) and allows for on-the-fly execution of code blocks because Atom is being phased out?
note: Thanks for answers in vs code to obtain interactive feature hold ctrl + return will run code.
Did you try the Microsoft Visual Studio Code ? You can check how to download and setup for Julia notebook in link below.

The Best, Wr
In Microsoft VS Code you can define code cells using magic comments (## or # %% or #- can play this role - the choice is yours):
##
(your code goes here)
##
A code cell is executed by pressing Alt + Enter while the cursor is inside the cell.
At the code below I pressed Alt + Enter while being in line 10.
The keyboard shortcut can be configured by selecting in the main menu View->Command Palette or pressing Ctrl + Shift + P:
VSCode. The Julia team was working on a Julia IDE called Juno but the website now says "Juno will receive no more feature updates. Development focus has shifted to the Julia extension for VSCode", and VSCode seems to be the recommended way to develop in julia.
The Julia extension for VSCode let's you run code block by just pressing shift+enter and it uses Revise.jl to make interactive sessions better. You can see plots and other outputs right in the editor, and recenty they have even added performance monitoring/benchmarking tools.
However, if you prefer notebook-style workflows, you can use Jupyter with Julia (and the IJulia kernel) but even better imo is Pluto, which is specifically made for Julia and has some nice features such as no hidden state.
I am using Julia.
I am trying to get some greek characters in Jupyter notebooks.
First I downloaded the latest version of Julia 1.6.2
For the jupyter connection I used anaconda, in julia repl i put ] add IJulia, and then I could chose the Julia kernel in Jupyter.
Then a friend suggested to download vs code (since we got a problem in the working directory with jupyter-anaconda)
In VS code we got no problem with working directories. And to work with notebooks we installed the Jupyter extension. It was working very well, but we got to this problem that we cannot get greek characters.
In Jupyter (anaconda) I could easily put greek characters, like this:
no package needed, nothing, just like that.
However in VSCode I cannot get that, nor "predictive text" or coding suggestions:
Any tips on how to solve this?
Like we are preferring VS Code and we know there's a way to get the greek characters on it, but we don't know how.
Any help is very welcomed.
Thanks in advance.
Check out the docs for the Julia extension in VS code here: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/julia. Per the comments above, make sure this is installed and you have the Julia kernel selected. You should then see the following:
I'm using VS Code and i miss RStudio's ctrl+i to indent lines.
I've read stuff online about LSP and other extensions and formatting with shift+alt+F but all i get is linter.
So, whats the equivalent if is there at all?
Found a solution but there a few things to take note.
First, VSCode notive options are language-agnostic, meaning it can't indent R code 'cause it doesn't understand it. You got to download extensions to make i work.
Extensions required are
Yuki Ueda's R for language support
REditorSupport's R LSP Client
Also, in order to R LSP Client to work, CRAN package {languageserver} is required.
Then, usage. If you're working functions, differently from RStudio in which one can hit ctrl+i and that'd indent that specifically line or selection, this solution works only if one selects the entire function. If you have functions inside another, you gotta indent everything (won't work for just a foo inside another).
Is is possible to change the "Control + R" shortcut for sending scripts from the R text editor in the Windows GUI to the R console? I'd like to change it to "Control + Enter" to be more like the shortcut on my Mac. I do all my normal work on a Mac but have to use R on a PC to interface with some PC-only computational software.
Additional tidbits:
I'd rather not run an IDE on the PC if I don't have to, though perhaps this is the solution.
I use Rstudio on my Mac, but Rstudio does not get along with the PC software I'm running
The short answer is:
"No, there are no [built-in] ways to alter the menu shortcuts in the R Console"
I'm however gathering here -community wiki style- some of suggestions posted as remarks to this questions.
One approach may be to download the R source, hack it (see circa line 625 of src/gnuwin32/editor.c: ), and build the R binary anew (see the R for Windows FAQ for the tools you need to build from source). This seems to be a rather radical approach for the mere convenience of using an alternate keystroke sequence...
A similar approach may be to create an automatic patcher program which would patch the R executable, by locating the byte patterns surrounding the compiled logic of editor.c mentioned above and replacing it with a byte sequence for the desired keystroke. This solution may be sensitive to changes in the binaries, but also avoids the build process altogether...
An easier way to achieve this is probably by using an external text editor. Most modern editors have macros or configs that can be used, for example, to execute a source command in R for the selected text.
Customizing keyboard shortcuts is made available in Rstudio 0.99.644.
See https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/206382178-Customizing-Keyboard-Shortcuts for more information.
after using sciviews-K for a while, I am about to give the R Eclipse combo another chanced. I updated to Helios on my Mac OS X Snow Leopard. So far everything that used to make trouble with Eclipse works, but somehow I miss the auto-completion of code. Or at least the standard suggestion of paramaters when you use R functions. This is even possible in the standard R GUI.
How can I use some of these enhancements with StatET Eclipse?
Thx in advance for not telling me to use Emacs / ESS !
Looks like you can't have an answer shorter than 15 characters, so here is some elaborate text to pass this silly check. Try pressing Ctrl+Space.
