R first #5325

Closed drbenedictpaul closed 1 week ago

Type: Feature Request

Hi,

The interface is really superb. I have a suggestion though.

When we select the dropdown at the right top corner, it lists Python and R. But, because posit is originally an R company, I suggest that R be loaded first in the list.

Thanks.

VS Code version: Positron 1.93.0 (e0d844b031f95acbf89f234a2cce2af9b6721f6c, 2024-10-31T14:13:53.873Z) OS version: Linux x64 6.6.50-05083-g5a8e7e69b744 Modes:

I don't think we're likely to invest in the short term in making this menu, say, responsive to the last interpreter you chose or similar. However, we do have https://github.com/posit-dev/positron/issues/3575 where we are tracking an easy way to disable a certain language, for example, to disable Python if you are solely an R user.

As a workaround for now, you can disable the Python extension in Positron from the Extensions tab, and then you won't see Python interpreters at all:
