Bug in R highlighter

[jeroen]

The R highlighter does something weird to the final line of a comment: https://www.opencpu.org/posts/commonmark-fast/

In R code the keywords,such as library, don't render correctly. I check the source file and find that the R keyword is span.n, which means normal. But in the pygments highlighter, it is span.k, which meas keyword.
I can't figure out why pygments should be repalced by rouge!

@BruceZhaoR The bug report is unconcerned with the lack of highlighting of function names; the issue is, rather, that the last line of the comment is wrongly highlighted:

The move may have been premature but there are good reasons for it: Jekyll itself runs in Ruby, and having to invoke a separate interpreter to use a library written in another language (Python) is potentially vastly less efficient than using a library written in the same language.

@klmr Sorry about that! New things always take time to adapt. Hope somebody could implement the highlighting of R function names. 😃

I borrowed a set of js file from RStudio,and now it works fine. If you want to make your R highlight nicer,you could go to look the brucezhaor.github.iorepository.

@BruceZhaoR There’s #383 as well.

[miparnisari]

This looks OK in version 3.4.1.

@miparnisari Yeah, #383 was merged in. Thanks for rooting out these stale issues :)
