Thanks a lot John.
I had tried, but only with the whole Editor window, not trying to extract single tabs from the Editor window...!

Ok, I think I'll switch to RStudio then, but still, the Mac R Editor is great ;)

Hi Ivan,

The latest version of RStudio does allow for at least the Source Editor windows to be popped out of the main RStudio window. And you can create a new graphics device (dev.new()) which effectively pops the graph window out as well. I've found multiple sources windows + graph windows on one monitor and the rest of RStudio on another monitor is reasonably close to my workflow with R.app.

take care,

John

    Thank you Mollie and all,

    So it looks like there's no way to properly use chunks within the
    Mac R GUI.
    I will have to decide whether I completely switch to RStudio, or
    develop in the R GUI and then run in RStudio.

    Still, until now I was a great fan of the R GUI on Mac so I'm a
    bit frustrated. It would be great if this feature were integrated
    to the R GUI some day! Alternatively, a better GUI for RStudio
    allowing for multiple screens would be fine too (but that's for
    another list!).

    Bests,
    Ivan

        Hi Ivan,

        Using the R GUI and the built-in editor, you should be able to
        format your document in the standard Rmarkdown or knitr way
        and save it with the appropriate extension (Rmd or Rnw), but
        only run lines within chunks in the console (using command +
        enter in the normal way). You can make sure all the chunks are
        working in that way. Then to format the whole document you can
        use a command in the Terminal as described in the links Tom
        sent or reopen the document in Rstudio.

        Somehow my R GUI can’t find the right pieces to make the pdf,
        so I have to use the Terminal. render("EstObsErr.Rmd")
        produces the error
        /usr/local/bin/pandoc EstObsErr.utf8.md
        <http://EstObsErr.utf8.md> --to latex --from
        
markdown+autolink_bare_uris+ascii_identifiers+tex_math_single_backslash-implicit_figures

        pandoc: pdflatex not found. pdflatex is needed for pdf output.

        cheers,

            Thank you for your answer.

            I don't usually use the Terminal, so I'm not sure how to
            do it.
            But do you mean to start it from the Terminal and then use
            the R GUI or do everything in the Terminal? In the latter
            case, I would prefer using RStudio... My question was
            about using the R GUI Editor rather than RStudio.

                Ivan,

                You need to run knitr manually from the terminal
                (RStudio automates this with the “knit” button). See

                http://joshldavis.com/2014/04/12/beginners-tutorial-for-knitr/
                http://kbroman.org/knitr_knutshell/pages/Rmarkdown.html

                for short tutorials on using knitr from the terminal.

                Regards,

                Tom

                    Dear Mac useRs,

                    A colleague of mine have introduced me to
                    rmarkdown and knitr to produce nice reports. The
                    other interesting thing here is to have so-called
                    chunks of code, which I find very practical to
                    organize scripts.

                    I have found that it works well within RStudio.
                    But is there a way to enable chunks within the R
                    GUI (and its great editor)?
                    What I don't like with RStudio (except that I need
                    to install still another software, and place is
                    limited on the 256GB SSD of my MacBook Air) is
                    that it is not able to work on multiple screens.

                    Thank you in advance for your help.
                    Ivan
