I know that kind of fights, highlight did the same. There is also a 
problem with the functions withs dots, like as.numeric, etc ..
It is difficult to tell these softwares that as.numeric is a keyword 
when as and numeric are also. I came up with a simple bash script that 
removes everything like "</span>.<span"

Great, Thanks.
And if we end up with the same css file, that will consolidate the 
bridge between the two places.

I know, that will not be too difficult to change in RGG. I just have to 
be synchronized.

The first one looks really cool

Ok, i'll make the changes.

And yet, it is so simple
