Hello RStudio Community!
I am experimenting a bit with RStudio. I am interested in how the "Go To Help" and "Go To Function Definition" process works. Are they R functions? I am interested in writing my own R functions that will be turned into addins that can make use of the word a cursor is on. However, I cannot find much information online about these two functions in RStudio.
If they are not R code, how would I go about getting the word my cursor is on? I have been able to use the rstudioapi
package to get the selected text with getActiveDocumentContext()
, but I would like to simplify the process and just obtain the word my cursor is on and use that word in my function flow.
Any help is appreciated!
