Thanks - that's good to know. Because ITS update = the student desktop every summer, we'll be on a=20 version of RStudio from probably June last year (and whatever version of pandoc that installed, which won't be version 2). I've asked ITS t= o test out updating to latest pandoc on the system to override whatever ver= sion was installed by RStudio last summer and test a basic RMD document. I&= #39;ll keep my finger's crossed. thanks for the suggestion. If that fai= ls I'll find out a specific version number (I'm a mac user so don&#= 39;t have a networked PC in my office ... it's quite the faff for me to= access the student desktop - I have to find a PC cluster on campus where t= eaching isn't happening then log in from there!)
