> **Brenton Wiernik 🏳️‍🌈** (@bmwiernik; 1/0): @lobrowR For a new session, use system() https://t.co/7jc4f59hae or even just call knitr manually (the point of Rmd is that they always run in their own session when knit).
> For the existing session, see this discussion, https://t.co/40EDX0wHYA, but I suggest using .R files instead of .Rmd  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1173973406536077313)

> **Danielle Navarro** (@djnavarro; 1/0): @shinyps1 @lingtax Heh. For once it's not R markdown. I used the web based GUI at https://t.co/mYVbAtJ08p. It relies on the same library (reveal.js) that is used by @xieyihui's xaringan package, but my xaringan skills are a bit weak so i find the GUI front end really helpful  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/1171892287808229376)
