rmdplugr

rmdplugr modifies latex templates for Rmarkdown formats in order to

1. restore style modifications caused by the default Rmarkdown and pandoc templates and
2. enable additional modifications such as marginal material and author blocks.

The basic idea is that this package maintains to custom template and instead inserts pandoc plugins (chunks) into the latex template in order to provide modifications. The only requirement is that the template to be modified (by default the default pandoc template gotten from pandoc -D latex) contains a few lines from the standard template so that rmdplugr knows where to insert the new template matter.
