Breaking lines in bookdown R output

[StatSteph]

I'm using the CRC template to make a book and trying to force breaking of lines in some R output. I made a trivial example and can't get it to work. I'm trying to incorporate recommendations here to break the lines of R output in a PDF but I can't get it to work.

See example of what I changed here

Overview:

• Added listings package to preamble.tex \usepackage{listings}
• Set option to break lines in before_body.tex \lstset{breaklines=true}
• Added a chunk of wide output using

options(width=200)
1:100

When I made the PDF, it doesn't break the lines as expected.

Any ideas?

Had trouble repping this as bookdown, so played with the simpler Rmd case, which seems it should carry over. See header-include in the YAML and results='asis' in final chunk. Remove leading ' to cut-and-paste.

  - \usepackage{listings}
  - \lstset{breaklines=true, postbreak=\mbox{\textcolor{red}{$\hookrightarrow$}\space}}

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
knitr::opts_chunk$set(tidy = TRUE, width = 40)

`## R Markdown

This is an R Markdown document set to render in pdf, as a simpler alternative to narrow the issues on the Bookdown case.

'### Global knitr option to reduce chunk margins in set up (to 40) had no effect

'### The default case

Chunk output wrapped

'{r} 1:100 '
'### Using chunk option to allow wider than margin output

'{r} options(width=200) 1:100 '

'### Omitted option next chunk does not restore previous default

'{r} 1:100 '

'### Width option has to be expressly reset

'{r} options(width=60) 1:100 '

' ### Wrapping wide output with tex markup

'{r, results='asis'} options(width=200) 1:100 '

This is necessary to format correctly the source code and it is easy enough. Thank you !
