Import .Rmd (R Notebook) and .qmd (Quarto) files

[GitHunter0]

I almost don't use .R files anymore since I find Quarto and R Notebooks provide a way better experience.

What do you think about supporting the import of .Rmd and .qmd files?

box could use knitr::purl() under the hood to accomplish that.

Thank you

Thanks, this is an interesting idea. Unfortunately I currently don’t have the capacity to implement it myself but I am happy to consider pull requests.

There are probably some non-obvious things that need to be thought about carefully when implementing this, since code is executed differently in notebooks than in regular R files (for example, ‘knitr’ messes with the working directory) but it might work.
