Supporting .Rmd files

[filippogambarota]

Is there any way to enable the extension for RMarkdown files?

It should support the rmd language from the R extension.

Alternatively, check what language vscode is using for the .rmd file (usually displayed near the bottom-right edge of window) and change it to markdown.

Hope that works!

I have a closely-related question. Is it possible to get this to work with another Language Mode? That is, I would like to be able to use the extension without selecting Markdown as the language. Specifically, I'm editing a Quarto .qmd document (which basically allows a superset of the features of .Rmd). If I select Markdown in order to have PandocCiter available, it works, but then I lose the quarto-specific features of Quarto in VSCode that I'd like to access.

I have the same request as @postylem. Including Quarto .qmd documents would be a great improvement! Thanks!

@postylem @atomashevic Thanks for bringing Quarto to my attention! I don't use it but it looks cool and I might find it useful in the future.
As for citations, I tried adding support for .qmd in the latest release of PandocCiter (version 0.9.3). Hopefully it works. Let me know if there's any issues. I didn't enable any hi-lighting for citations because I think quarto already does that.

@notZaki Works great, thank you! And yes, highlighting is already in quarto so everything works as it should so far.
