Syntax Highlighting for R Source Code
This is an infrastructure R package for syntax highlighting. It supports
LaTeX and HTML output. Not surprisingly, it works best with R code. It
attaches markups onto source code, e.g., it turns
a <- 1 # something
into LaTeX code
\hldef{a} \hlkwb{<-} \hlnum{1} \hlcom{\# something}
or HTML code
<span class="hl def">a</span> <span class="hl kwb"><-</span> <span class="hl num">1</span> <span class="hl com"># something</span>
via
library(highr)
hi_latex("a <- 1 # something")
hi_html("a <- 1 # something")
# or hilight(code, format = "latex"/"html")
This package also has a wrapper function, hi_andre()
, for Andre Simon’s
Highlight package.
There are a few package Markdown vignettes in this package:
