## Markdown highlighting {.unnumbered}
| Formatting | Code |
|:-----------|:-------------|
| **bold** | \*\*bold\*\* |
| __bold__ | \_\_bold\_\_ |
| *italic* | \*italic\* |
| _italic_ | \_italic\_ |
## Text coloring {.unnumbered}
To add color you can use CSS or R code like this:
```{r, include=TRUE}
color_text <- function(x, color){
if(knitr::is_latex_output())
paste("\\textcolor{",color,"}{",x,"}",sep="")
else if(knitr::is_html_output())
paste("<font color='",color,"'>",x,"</font>",sep="")
else
x
}
red <- function(x){
if(knitr::is_latex_output())
paste("\\textcolor{",'red',"}{",x,"}",sep="")
else if(knitr::is_html_output())
paste("<font color='red'>",x,"</font>",sep="")
else
x
}
```
The strng `r red("This is colored with the red function")` comes from:
```{r eval=FALSE}
`r red("This is colored with the red function")`
```
The string `r color_text("This is colored with the color_text function set to mauve", "#E0B0FF")` comes from:
```{r eval=FALSE}
`r color_text("This is colored with the color_text function set to mauve", "#E0B0FF")`
```
## Section references {.unnumbered #x99.4}
Section [99.4](#x99.4) comes from `Section [99.4](#x99.4)`
## Footnotes {.unnumbered}
^[A footnote] comes from `^[A footnote]`
