Command that takes the current word or selection and sends it as an arg #201
Description
Another idea I had is a variant of this that take the current word or selection and sends it as an arg.
Would enable stuff like:
[
{
"description": "loadd target under cursor",
"key": "ctrl+l",
"command": "r.somethingSomethingWithSelectionOrWord",
"when": "editorTextFocus && editorLangId == 'r'",
"args": "drake::loadd"
}
Thoughts on that one?

There's a function
runSelectionOrWordthat if called withrunSelectionOrWord(["t", "head"]))will sendt(head(SELECTION))to the console. It sounds like that would do the job if it were exposed inpackage.json.I've been thinking of changing it so you'd call it like with 'before selection' and 'after selection' arguments:
runSelectionOrWord("t(head(", "))"). That would enable more control, such as quoting the selection or passing it to a named parameter. Knitting the selection could then be done as discussed here: #155 (comment)EDIT: Fixed order of functions
