Texmaker and TeXstudio ⇒ Sweave Syntax Highlighting

[alphaace]

Hi,

I work with sweave a lot and it often happens that my generated R code has a "$" sign symbol, such as when I reference an element of a list. However, when I get my code into texmaker, all the syntax after the dollar symbol is highlighted green.

For example, in my code I have the following:

\begin{Schunk}
\begin{Sinput}
......data$age....
\end{Sinput}
\end{Schunk}

However, because of the dollar sign, all my code afterwards is the wrong color. This doesn't happen in Texshop on my mac and I was wondering if there is a way around this?

Thanks!
