RRR - R Enhanced

This is a fork of vscode-R by REditorSupport. RRR maintains the original extension with additional bug fixes and improvements for R development in VS Code.

What's different from the original R extension?

• Configurable plot image format: Choose between SVG and PNG for the plot viewer. PNG significantly improves performance when plots contain a large number of elements.
• Respawn on attach for help and language server: Automatically respawn the help server and language server when attaching to a new R session, keeping help pages and completions up-to-date when switching between R versions.
