SUMMARY

Recently I reported an error i encountered when I start RKWARD. "Fatal Error 
unable to initialise the JIT". This Error has not happen since I reported this bug. I am keen to see the spell checker working. Another issue ( not a bug) is that Rmarkdown previewer is rather slow to load and update and currently is not in sync with the editor. Is there away of introducing these improvements?
Thank you

Thanks!

As for the spellchecker (and the trashbin), I'll need to investigate that.

The markdown preview is expected to be slow, esp. on larger documents. Not a whole lot that we can do about this. However, you can try turning off the "Update as you type"-option (accessible from the "Preview"-button). With the option off, the preview will update every time you save, only.
