Recognize the .Rmarkdown extension #40

Closed jennybc closed 4 years ago

jennybc commented 4 years ago

I just tried to use the addin to count words in a blog post I wrote with extension .Rmarkdown. That's something that comes up in some blogdown/Hugo workflows.

And I got this error:

> wordcountaddin:::text_stats()
Error in text_to_count(filename) : 
  The supplied file has a file extension which is not associated with markdown.
  This function only works with markdown or R markdown files.

Now, it was easy enough to just open the rendered .markdown file and wordcount that. But it seems like you could accept the .Rmarkdown extension.

Thanks for letting me know, I agree, we should count words in .Rmarkdown files. I've made an edit and it should recognise .Rmarkdown as a valid input file now.
