A forward pipe operator was added to the R language 4.1 and is supported by the
R parsers and tools in StatET now. Above all it appears in the code syntax

A new editor template for the pipe operator allows to insert it by a keyboard shortcut, the default binding is Ctrl+5. |

The R language 4.1 also provides a new shorthand notation for function definition
using a backslash. The R parsers and tools in StatET support the new syntax too:

A new quick assist quickly converts a classic function call to the new forward
pipe operator.

The new commands for the quick assists Rename in File and Convert to Forward Pipe (see
above) allows direct access to these actions by customizable keyboard shortcuts too.
|
| Support for Replacement Function |
The support for replacement functions has been improved, so that all occurrences are
correctly linked together now. Also the quick assists to rename the occurrences in the
file or code chunk take into account the special naming rules:
