[ESS] why a release from time to time would be nice

[Stephen Bond]

Tyler,

Happy you are lending a hand. I alternate between notebook and plain
htmil output. this is my typical:

---
title: "Title"
author: "Author"
date: "2023-10-08"
output:
  # html_document:
  #   df_print: kable
  #   mathjax: C:/emacs/MathJax.js
  html_notebook:
    df_print: kable
    mathjax: C:/emacs/MathJax.js
editor_options:
  chunk_output_type: inline
---

I am not familiar with yasnippet. Maybe that is the missing piece.
Cheers
Stephen
