Description

@Ikuyadeu @randy3k In the R grammar file https://github.com/Ikuyadeu/vscode-R/blob/master/syntax/r.json it says, "This file has been converted from https://github.com/randy3k/R-Box/blob/master/syntax/R%20Extended.sublime-syntax If you want to provide a fix or improvement, please create a pull request against the original repository. Once accepted there, we are happy to receive an update request".

https://github.com/randy3k/R-Box is deprecated in favour of https://github.com/REditorSupport/sublime-ide-r but as far as I can tell that doesn’t contain an R grammar file. Is this the new source of the R grammar? https://github.com/REditorSupport/atom-language-r/blob/master/grammars/r.cson

Research direction

Start with syntax/r.json and the source references in its header, then compare the linked R-Box and atom-language-r grammar files. Determine whether atom-language-r is the intended canonical source and document or update the grammar provenance accordingly; the issue is done when the source is confirmed and the repository reference is accurate.
