knitr (version 1.7)

knit_theme: Syntax highlighting themes

Description

This object can be used to set or get themes in knitr for syntax highlighting.

Usage

knit_theme

format

List of 2 $ set:function (theme) $ get:function (theme = NULL)

Details

We can use knit_theme$set(theme) to set the theme, and knit_theme$get(theme) to get a theme. The theme is a character string for both methods (either the name of the theme, or the path to the CSS file of a theme), and for the set() method, it can also be a list returned by the get() method. See examples below.
