I was commenting some code, and for styling purposes, added a "|" after the #, like this:
#| comment here
This caused the comment to turn gray. Not sure if I searched using the wrong terms but couldn't find anything about it in the RStudio portal or stackexchange. Appreciate if someone could explain what this does.
Create a new Quarto Document and look at the sample content. It explains that #| can be used within a code chunk to add options to executable code, like #| echo: false, rather than in the chunk's header, like {r, echo = FALSE}. RStudio must use that display format anytime you type #|, whether it is in a Quarto Document or R Notebook.
I think it acts like a regular comment in the later, so keep using it for comments if that style works for you.
