Shortcuts in RStudio

t-wojciech opened this issue · comments

There are very helpful keyboard shortcuts in RStudio (and in other IDEs as well) that I always use.

Without crude if(FALSE){} workarounds, there’s no way to comment out blocks.

CTRL + SHIFT + C can be used to comment out and uncomment code blocks.

<- was designed for keyboards that don’t exist any more. It’s a pain to type on a modern system.

ALT + - to insert <-.

I've always found 'Alt' + '-' harder to type than just '->', but it is nice that it automatically does the spacing. As for the other IDE shortcut, that's absolutely worth a mention. I'll add it in the next version.

Fixed.
