RJournal doesn't like ^ or % or $ in R code chunks

[njtierney]

Thanks for putting this package together, it's super cool!

I'm working on submitting an Article to the R Journal, and am using the R Journal template from rticles.

I've got it here on my github: https://github.com/njtierney/A-Simple-Guide-to-S3-Methods

When I render the article, I random sections of it render into text, and then the R comments get treated as first level headers. When I changed the R programming code from ^ to use ** instead, there were fewer problems, but it now seems that when I call something like x$residuals in the .Rmd, LaTeX has trouble parsing it, as well as %in%

This is particularly on pages 4, 5, and 6 of the PDF.

I'll probably just change the .tex file to get it to render well in the end, but just thought you guys would like to know!

Duplicate of #49 (we don't have a solution yet).

oops! Sorry about duplicating the issue!

Fixed. Please try devtools::install_github('rstudio/rticles'). Note that it will require Pandoc 2.2.1. You can use the Preview version of RStudio if you do not want to install Pandoc separately: https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/preview/
