Increase the width of chunk output

[elgabbas]

Hello,

I would like to increase the area occupied with the output of the R chunk. For example, using this simple code returns the following output:

print(cbind(iris, iris))

I want to increase the number of characters that fit each line; i.e., allow the filling of the empty area to the right.

Any advice?
Thanks.

This is tied to getOption("width"), so set your desired width with options(width = XXXX).

This was a rather basic R question! I expected that this has something specific to quarto.... Thanks...

FYI, same applies to rmarkdown (both are using knitr).

In case people are wondering how to set the output width globally, you can include these lines in the YAML header:

engine: knitr
knitr:
  opts_chunk: 
    R.options:
      width: 120
