How to conveniently spellcheck R comments with RStudio on R source files?
I am writing a package and I want it to look professional. Thanks to Oxygen, all package's documentation lives in R comments, which by default is excluded from spell checking. So even if spell checking functionality does exist in RStudio, I don't know how to use it.
The spelling package is great for this: https://github.com/ropensci/spelling.
devtools::install_github("ropensci/spelling")
spelling::spell_check_package() # path to package Project
RStudio 1.3 will include this feature; and it is possible to already try it out.
Well this is moot now that Rstudio has spellcheck for spin documents!
So, I write a lot of my lessons and examples for teaching using spin rather than markdown. It just makes for an easier flow. The problem is that there is no spell-check in a spin document, much like your package documentation example.
What I have resorted to is using the terminal then running a command line spellchecker on the document.
I'm on linux so here is my workflow.
save the file I am working let's say example_lesson.R (typos and all)
open the terminal pane of Rstudio and cd to the right folder
make sure the file example_lesson.R is there
run the spell-checker
> aspell check example_lesson.R
Once I'm done with aspell, I go back to the editor window in Rstudio and it updates what I am working on with the spell-checked version. I spin it and I am done.
I've only tested with small examples, but it has worked thus far. Your mileage may vary. Hope that helps.

How to move a function/type from one Go file to an other Go file in vscode?
... and the IDE should update all usages of the moved function/type ...
In the past I used Python and PyCharm, and it supported this kind of refactoring.
It seems that this feature (the move-refactoring) hasn't been implemented in VSCode yet. The only workaround that just came into my mind is this.
You can use the cmd gomvpkg to move a package to a new one. Thanks to this, if you have only the function within the file you should be good to go. It should also update the import statements (make sure to double-check them anyway). I know that it's boring in fact I keep copying/pasting functions between packages as it's faster.
It seems that this feature is already supported in Goland, so you can give it a try maybe if you wish.
Let me know!
I am trying to create my own set of snippets for vim on Windows.
As soon as I create the directory $HOME/vimfiles/after/snippets (with or without files) the "standard" snippets (i.e. those that came with snipmate itself) won't be triggered anymore.
I have tried the same on a Linux installation where I was able to create a (working) set of snippets in ~/.vim/after/snippets/*.snippets.
What am I missing?
Edit An answer asked if I am using the original snipmate or the fork?
Answer: I was unaware of such a fork and I seem to be using the "original" one.
Edit II echo &rtp contains C:\Users\Rene/vimfiles/after (under which I created the snippets directory).
Could it be that the mixed forward backward slashes is the problem?
What SnipMate are you talking about? The original or the fork? The fork doesn't come with default snippets so you are certainly talking about the original, right?
:help snipmate says:
Snippets are by default looked for any 'snippets' directory in your
'runtimepath'.
It's possible (but unlikely) that after is not part of your runtimepath… could you check with :echo &rtp?
Anyway, you can use the g:snippets_dir variable to tell SnipMate where to look for snippets:
let g:snippets_dir = '~/.vim/after/snippets/'
One of Xcode's most powerful features is it's Intellisense completion, which brings up a list of potential candidates as you type the name of a Foundation/Cocoa/UIKit API. I am very interested in MacRuby, PyObjC, or the more recent RubyMotion, however without code completion these tools seem like more trouble than they're worth.
Is there any code completion feature (not necessarily Intellisense) for any of the three technologies above, for any text editor (but preferably for Vim or Xcode)? Bonus points for an IDE solution which allows for building and running the application in a single command (like Xcode's Run button).
It's my understanding that Xcode 4 dropped support for MacRuby/PyObjC, so Intellisense is no longer available. Should I install Xcode 3 alongside Xcode 4 for the code completion? How is everyone else doing it (surely you guys use some form of code completion -- I can't believe anyone can remember all the classes in Foundation/Cocoa/UIKit)?
RubyMotion comes with vi ctag support. Run rake ctags to create them.
FWIW, there is a Code completion package for Sublime Text 2, which can also be installed via the package manager of the Sublime text.
And it seems to work rather well for me.
Yes, you can give yourself Vim code completion by running $ rake ctags in the root directory of your RubyMotion app. To take that a step further, use a shell script to generate ctags automatically every time you create a new RubyMotion app. This article shows how to build such a script:

How to generate tags file for Go source
In mac, I installed exuberant ctags , and tried the below command in source directory
ctags -f gosource.tags -R `pwd`
But, it doesn't consider *.go files. Do I have to use -h option? But, isn't it only for header files, as per the manual?
Please give me the correct command so that I can use the tags file with vim. I also prefer absolute path so that I can keep the file anywhere
Thanks.
Edit:
I assumed current ctags support Go, seeing http://groups.google.com/group/golang-nuts/browse_thread/thread/3a4848db231b02c9.
but, http://ctags.sourceforge.net/languages.html desn't have go listed.
Add the following to ~/.ctags
--langdef=Go
--langmap=Go:.go
--regex-Go=/func([ \t]+\([^)]+\))?[ \t]+([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/\2/d,func/
--regex-Go=/var[ \t]+([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/\1/d,var/
--regex-Go=/type[ \t]+([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/\1/d,type/
(From http://go-wise.blogspot.com/2011/09/using-ctags-with-go.html)
--langdef=Go
--langmap=Go:.go
--regex-Go=/func([ \t]+\([^)]+\))?[ \t]+([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/\2/f,func/
--regex-Go=/var[ \t]+([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/\1/v,var/
--regex-Go=/type[ \t]+([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/\1/t,type/
Does indeed work with ctags 5.8. One slight change from the previous poster, ctags requires unique 1-char types at the ends of the regex lines. Thus /d,func/ should read /f,func/ intuitively. This allows the ctags to distinguish between and identify types, allowing ctags --go-types=fvt i.e.
I saw your post, bumbled around a bit trying to find a good tool for the job, tried ctags, and ultimately was unsatisfied. I wrote a program 'gotags' in Go that generates a ctags file for Go code. Its better than the current ctags support because, for example, it tags struct field names as well as the struct name itself. You can get it here: https://github.com/necro351/gotags.
Its a nice short simple Go program because it uses the standard library parser and has no extra features other than good Go parsing and tagging. Just check it out (or go get it) and do a go install. Also, if you have any suggestions or ideas about improving it, let me know.
Edit: I am an active Gopher and so will be updating this tool over time and as I use it.
Edit: I am not actively developing Go anymore. But my tool is very short and pretty much works as is so it should "just work" :)
universal-ctags supports Go. It's the successor of exuberant-ctags and works perfectly fine. See here for the man pages.
Check Go Dashborad/Projects, section "Tag Generators". Status of those tools is not known to me.

I have been programming almost exclusively in Vim since 1/1/2001, and I feel that Vim fulfulls all my needs as an editor/IDE, but I can't help but wonder if perhaps there have been some new killer features developed for other IDEs in the last decade that would allow me to be more productive than I can be using Vim. So I ask: What are the most important IDE features missing in Vim??
Integrated debugging with all the fanciness that Visual Studio/Eclipse provide (thread debugging, etc etc)
Autocomplete with inline documentation support for methods/properties
Build and run from 'within' the editor application
I miss the excellent refactoring support and code tips from tools such as Resharper. Regexs are powerful for code modification, but understanding the code as Resharper does is just a tad better IMO.
Fortunately I can get both Resharper and Vim in Visual Studio so I am happy.
The real question is: what do VIM have that IDEs are missing.
I find that refactoring would be a real nice thing to have. Changing a java package name in vim with lots of source files can be pretty cumbersome.
Originally the refactoring was the killer feature that made us switch from Emacs. I have now used Eclipse extensively for Java for the last 6 years, and I expect any replacement to have:
Refactoring: Rename variables, functions, change method signatures (including all calls to it).
Debugging: "You are here" "Your current variables are" plus stuff like "go to the defined class for this object" or "go to the actual type for this object". I belive the latter requires quite a bit of integration between debugger and editor.
Code replacement while debugging. Change code, press Ctrl-S and the code in your debugging session is updated with what you just changed. A killer feature for big programs.
Navigation: Simple navigation of class hierarchy (please show me all implementations of this method in this interface and similar).
Javadoc integration - Eclipse can show javadoc just by hovering the mouse over an identifier.
Plus some more :)
Edit: I occasionally miss the Emacs functionality inside Eclipse, but the Eclipse editor has become stronger so it is not so bad anymore. In this regard the Save Action allowing a Format at every save was a killer. This ensures that changes show up properly in the source repository.
Search in files: In most editors, there is a separate window doing the search in files, and simultaneously editing can continue on the main window. The search results are updated as and when they are found. Also the current results can be viewed by clicking on it, even when the searching is ongoing, without waiting for the entire search to be completed.(whereas in cim one has to wait till vimgrep/ctags has finished to view the results)
This is particularly useful for search in large number of files.
So basically something like a search in background and simultaneously show results which can be clicked on to view them simultaneously.
(something like Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 does)
The things I missed were code completion and debugging. That's why I started using eclim http://eclim.sourceforge.net/index.html so I could use vim for what it does best and eclipse when I actually need it. Try it out - it's a fantastic combination.
It's like the old question "What's worn under a kilt?"
Answer: "Nothing. Everything's in perfect working order!".
But seriously, I'd like to see a more intuitive (easy to use) help system added to Vim.
There is nothing missing in Vim that an IDE has. The only thing we could argue about is; Vim needs to be customized and IDE comes out of the box.
Let me comment the other answeres and how to solve such "needs".
build
As mentioned, use :make and learn how to customize it.
refactoring
Use the very well known ropevim (for Python), it makes a great reafactoring tool. You won't need more than that. There are many others, search for your language.
Autocompletion
I use this snippet together with mapping to TAB (I think supertab plugin does that)
" python stuff
python << EOF
import os
import sys
import vim
for p in sys.path:
if os.path.isdir(p):
vim.command(r"set path+=%s" % (p.replace(" ", r"\ ")))
EOF
" tags for python libs
set tags+=~/.vim/tags/python.ctags
autocmd FileType python,mako set omnifunc=pythoncomplete#Complete
autocmd FileType html,mako set omnifunc=htmlcomplete#Complete
autocmd FileType html,mako set omnifunc=htmlcomplete#CompleteTags
autocmd FileType mako set filetype=mako.html.js
Help system
in Vim is perfect, you just have to learn it's system. It has it's own conventions how are things organized.
Debugging
I don't know for other languages than Python, but running pdb and !python % does it's job.
